Your questions about a hog roast day in Westham
Is Westham close to London?
About 50 miles from central London.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can you work around our timings?
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.
Can you serve on plates?
We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.
