Questions from Bosham

Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How it works
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Late-May events in Bosham have light until about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.

Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
