Questions from Twineham
Do you come out to small places like Twineham?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Twineham?
The closest is Burgess Hill station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
Do you cater in village halls?
Most places, if the roaster can cook outside.
Do you need anything from the family?
Very little: an outdoor cooking spot and someone to meet us.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do something else?
Yes, add chicken or a vegetarian option.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Space away from the building and any trees
- Permission from the hall or venue
- Space inside for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
Popular choices
- New potatoes
- Rotisserie chicken
- Hog roast rolls

For event organisers in Twineham
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
- An estimate of numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to booking a function room menu, a hog roast at home or a hall can be simpler and better value. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why Twineham hosts choose us

What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
We hold the food if people are delayed.
