Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Selsfield Common questions
Is Selsfield Common too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
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.
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 book for a business?
Tell us what your accounts team needs when you enquire, and we’ll explain the booking terms.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
