How hog roast for events works in East Sussex

For organisers, one reliable hot-food trader makes life easier. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. We’re frequently asked to cater festivals and vintage rallies, with hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken.

We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your visitors will smell it long before they see it.

  1. Organisers send us the event details.
  2. We confirm the pitch and send a price.
  3. The roast starts before the gates open.
  4. We serve as visitors arrive.
  5. We leave the pitch clean.

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Near you in Eastbourne

Locally, our bookings take us close to St Andrew, Princes Park and Stafford Junior School. Nearby too are The King's Arms Public House (0.9 miles south-east), WMG Academy for Young Engineers (1.5 miles south-west) and Ratton School (1.1 miles west). For guests coming by rail, the closest station is Hampden Park station, about 0.7 miles north-west. A little further out are Pevensey Castle (3 miles north-east) and Royal Sussex Regimental Museum (1 mile south-east). The countryside around Eastbourne includes Combe Hill.

Fairs, fêtes and festivals across East Sussex

In East Sussex’s villages, events may have limited power and water, while events in Eastbourne, Hastings and Bexhill-on-Sea need quick service. A gas-fired hog roast handles both. Parts of East Sussex are within a few miles of the High Weald National Landscape and the South Downs National Park, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events. 106 of the places we cover in East Sussex are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.

Eastbourne: Running a fête for a church like St Andrew? A hog roast draws people in. For anyone arriving by train, the closest railway station is Hampden Park station, roughly 0.7 miles north-west of the centre. Late-September events in Eastbourne lose the light at about 7:00pm, so evening trading needs lights.

Who books hog roast for events?

It is the stall people find by following their noses.

However big or small the event in East Sussex, a slow roast goes a long way. Bookings frequently include:

  • Church and village fêtes
  • Town and village days
  • School events
  • Charity fundraisers

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

What the cooking area needs

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:

  • Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
  • Permission for cooking on the site
  • A queuing area

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Allergies and dietary needs

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
  • Put the menu and allergen information on display

At the end, we pack down and take our waste.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
