What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Show allergens at the stall
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power. In late May, sunset in Burwash Weald is about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:15pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Planning help
Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
