Questions from Climping

Do you cater at venues 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 come out to small places like Climping?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Can you serve inside our office or hall?

Cooking is always outdoors; serving can be indoors.

Do you need power or water?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.

Can we have roast turkey?

We can: add turkey to the menu.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Do we need our own staff?

You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

What comes with the hog roast?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party

Each price is built from:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Plates or china
  • The journey to the venue
  • How many people are eating

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The address or postcode
  • Dietary requirements
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: fill in our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:

  • Light by the serving table
  • Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
  • Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Step by step

Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Christmas parties in Climping are almost always after dark: sunset is about 4:00pm in December. The cooking area is lit; tell us about lighting on the way to it.

  1. It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.

How to prepare

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

Catered or do it yourself?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Organising for someone else?

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
