Heyshott Green: your questions answered

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

How far is Heyshott Green from London?

About 46 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you serve at our lunch call?

We work to your schedule, holding the roast if lunch moves.

Do you do wrap parties?

We do. Send us the details.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.

What if it rains?

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

How do we prepare?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.

How much will it be?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Halal is not offered

We get to base first thing, roasting through the morning.

Sides make a proper lunch.

A hog roast compared with other options

Next to deliveries, a hog roast at base is ready on the call. 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.

What you get with us

  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork
  • Served at the time you choose

See our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.

Space, access and the venue

A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:

  • One contact for the day
  • Approval from locations
  • Flat ground at the unit base

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • Salads
  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • New potatoes
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Hog roast rolls

The process

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. By late September, sunset near Heyshott Green is about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.

  1. Share the location details.
  2. We agree our position with locations.
  3. We cook at base.
  4. We serve rolls or plates quickly.
  5. We leave base tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

What comes off the roaster

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.

Crackling

For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.

For planners, venues and organisers

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

How we price a hog roast for the crew

We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Crockery choices
  • How many people are eating

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

Details that help

These are the details we need:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Dietary requirements
  • Where the event is

Send us the date, the address or GU29 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
