Common questions in Kingston by Sea
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
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 clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
We can: add turkey to the menu.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
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 room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
