How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Little Conghurst, summer evenings stay light until about 9:15pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.

Common questions in Little Conghurst
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do a hog roast in Collingwood Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Each site is different: send us the checklist and we will reply.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Events we cater in Little Conghurst

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
