How our corporate hog roast works in Hangleton

How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. After-work summer events in Hangleton have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.

- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- A contact on site
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Questions from Hangleton
Is Hangleton close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue 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.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Can you set up in our car park?
Most car parks and yards are fine, if there’s a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can a company book?
Let us know your company’s booking requirements, and we’ll explain the booking terms.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Why choose a hog roast in Hangleton?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.

Being near the A2038 makes Hangleton a simple run. Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: the nearest station is Portslade station, about 1 mile south. With the South Downs National Park within about 7 miles, rural team days are easy to arrange. Within about 4 miles of the sea, sites can be windy.
For staff events in BN3 and BN41, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many staff. That could mean a staff event in a garden on Meads Avenue, Warenne Road and Burwash Road, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Main roads around Hangleton include the A2038, so getting the roaster to your staff event is simple. If your venue is just outside Hangleton, we also cover Portslade (1 mile south-west), Southwick (2 miles south-west), Kingston by Sea (2 miles west), Fulking (3 miles north) and Shoreham-by-Sea (3 miles west).

What affects the price in Hangleton
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
- Time on site
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- The venue or postcode
- Your menu choices
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- An estimate of numbers
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your staff event for a quote: use our quote form.
