Common questions in Botolphs
Is Botolphs close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Botolphs?
Shoreham-By-Sea station, about 3.2 miles south-east of the centre.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What about staff who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, depending on the crockery and menu.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.
What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. For a staff lunch in Botolphs, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Think about shelter for your staff
