A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Selham: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Selham?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cater at venues 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.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can families and staff join in?
It works well as a day with families.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some residents won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal isn’t offered
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Count families and staff too
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
We clear away quietly.
Serving on plates is often easier.

- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
