What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Halal isn’t offered
- Balance the food line-up
- Signpost the stall clearly
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, timed for the gates opening.
Tell us about any theme, such as a vintage fête.
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Bilsham
How far is Bilsham from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
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’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Can you come to our fête?
We love fêtes. Contact us.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late-May events in Bilsham have light until about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
