Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to street-food vans, a hog roast feeds plenty of people quickly from one roast. 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.

Planning a team lunch in Udimore
Udimore is about 6 miles north-east of Hastings, in East Sussex. We cover Udimore and its neighbours for staff events. We cater 289 places in East Sussex. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 30 miles away.
Commuters will know that the closest railway station is Winchelsea station, roughly 2.1 miles east of the centre. Within reach of Udimore are historic houses such as Lamb House (3.4 miles east) and Great Dixter (4.8 miles north-west). Historic venues suit client days, but check their rules on gas cooking first. The coast is within about 4 miles, and open sites can be breezy, so we choose a sheltered spot for the roaster.
Anywhere in TN31, we can roast on site for your staff. Streets in the area include Udimore Road and Float Lane, and a staff event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to staff events in Cock Marling (1 mile east), Broadland Row (1 mile west), Broad Street (1 mile south), Icklesham (2 miles south) and Beckley Furnace (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Hastings (6 miles south-west), Bexhill-on-Sea (10 miles south-west), St Leonards (7 miles south-west), Hastings Old Town (6 miles south-west), Belmont (6 miles south-west) and Hollington (7 miles south-west).
A little further out are Winchelsea Court Hall Museum (2.5 miles south-east) and Conquest Hospital (5.4 miles south-west). The countryside around Udimore includes Flatropers Wood.

Udimore questions
Is Udimore close to London?
About 50 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you roast near the sea around Udimore?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.

For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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:
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- Which meats and sides you’d like
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the staff event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Somewhere to park our vehicle
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- A named contact for the day
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
