For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Winchelsea: your questions answered
How far is Winchelsea from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London.
Can you do a hog roast in Rye Harbour LNR?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you set up in our car park?
Wherever your facilities team agrees, as long as it’s outdoors.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
