For planners, venues and organisers

Rock: your questions answered
Is Rock too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
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 we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Planning for dietary needs
Some staff won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch.
How we price a hog roast for your team
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Whether you want china
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
- Rough numbers
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Shelter for the team
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
