How our corporate hog roast works in Selmeston
For a client event, a hog roast carved by a chef makes an impression. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. Typical bookings include summer staff parties and end-of-project celebrations, with crackling, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
For farms and rural sites near Selmeston, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. Timings are planned around your staff event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

FAQs for Selmeston
How far is Selmeston from London?
About 47 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Selmeston?
The closest is Berwick (Sussex) station, roughly 1 mile away.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant outing, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why Selmeston hosts choose us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- An itemised quote

What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
