How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. By about 4:00pm in late December, Fittleworth is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Planners, venues and businesses
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, and we will plan it with you.
China crockery is available on request.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Roast turkey
For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved to order for a festive feel.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Light by the serving table
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
