Our hog roast for events in West Sussex

A hog roast can help a fundraiser in West Sussex attract visitors. We’ll talk through options with you. We serve halloumi skewers, apple sauce and a vegan burger or sausage, and typical bookings are for car shows and rallies and town and village days.

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time.

  1. Start with the date and numbers.
  2. We discuss the package or stall options.
  3. We roast on the pitch.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

What it costs in West Sussex

The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why hosts in West Sussex choose us

  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Sides to make it a full meal

Around Crawley

You will find our roaster at events near Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony, St Wilfrid's Catholic School and Tilgate Park, among other places. Nearby too are The George Hotel (within half a mile north), Three Bridges Junior School (within half a mile south-east) and St Francis of Assisi Catholic Primary School (within half a mile south-east). Crawley has its own railway station: Crawley station, handy for guests travelling by train. Nearby you’ll also find Crawley Hospital (0.5 miles north-west) and County Mall (within half a mile north-east). Green spaces within easy reach include Tilgate Lake.

Community events across West Sussex

Across West Sussex, fairs, fêtes and shows happen in Crawley, Horsham and Worthing and in 293 villages and hamlets. A hog roast suits all of them. Parts of West Sussex are within a few miles of the South Downs National Park and the High Weald National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles. 121 of the places we cover in West Sussex are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.

Crawley: If your event is in Tilgate Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for hot-food traders and vehicles. If visitors are coming by train, Crawley station is in Crawley itself. Summer events in Crawley have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
  • Make the stall easy to find
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Show allergens at the stall

We carve to order through the agreed hours.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

What a hog roast costs

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • Travel to West Sussex
  • Numbers

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

What we need to know

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • An estimate of numbers
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote: use our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.

Who books hog roast for events?

Alternatives cover non-pork eaters.

A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions in West Sussex. Here are some of the most popular:

  • Village fêtes
  • Car shows and rallies
  • Community events
  • Horse and dog shows

Full catering or machine hire?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

West Sussex questions

Will there be enough to go round?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.

What do you need from us on the day?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.

How soon do you get booked up?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.

Do you come to West Sussex?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including West Sussex and West Sussex. Send us the address for a quote.

Do you clear up?

We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.

Can you help with a fundraiser?

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
