Brighton and Hove questions
What’s the nearest station to Brighton and Hove?
Brighton and Hove has its own station: Aldrington station.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your care home event for a quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
