Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
For event organisers in Chailey
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Take a look at how we price and the cost guide.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Chailey, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
How to prepare

We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
