Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Chipstead
Could you cook in Fames Rough?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Chipstead?
Chipstead station, in Chipstead itself.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
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.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you have alternatives?
We can add chicken, lamb or vegetarian options.
Do you go to remote locations?
We can, given access details. Tell us about tracks and ground.
Can you set up at the unit base?
At base, on level ground. Locations will confirm the spot.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
About the food
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, carving is quicker for big numbers. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Served at the time you choose
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- All the equipment comes with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
Read how we price or what a hog roast costs.
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. On a winter shoot near Chipstead, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check the route and send a price.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
