Do you need power or water?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Label alternatives clearly
- Request gluten-free rolls
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Roast turkey can be added.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late-December sunset in Hurstpierpoint comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Roast turkey
Offer turkey and pork, and everyone’s happy, with roast potatoes on the side.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. 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, so we quote each one individually.

Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
