Didling questions
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’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Didling too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you come to Didling?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.

Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Occasions we serve in Didling
It needs no kitchen on site, only an outdoor cooking area.
In Didling and nearby, we cater for all sorts of events. Some of the most common are:
- Site open days
- Summer team parties
- Staff thank-you lunches

Questions to ask before you book
- Payment terms and cancellation policy
- Exactly what’s included in the price

What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
