Your questions about a hog roast day in South Mundham
Is South Mundham close to London?
About 56 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like South Mundham?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do soft food?
Modified textures are best done by the home; your team prepares those portions.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What time do you serve?
Tell us the time that suits residents, and we will plan the roast around it.
How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In late May, sunset in South Mundham is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We pack up calmly.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planners, venues and businesses

Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
