- How long the roast and service take
- Plates or china
- Distance from us

What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The address or postcode

- Which meats and sides you’d like
Send us the date, the address or BN8 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with individual food vans, a hog roast feeds a lot of people quickly from one roast. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Served at the time you choose
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

East Hoathly questions
What’s the nearest station to East Hoathly?
The closest is Uckfield station, roughly 4.2 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What space does the roaster 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.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What happens in bad weather?
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.
