About our hog roast for events in Coxheath
Organisers need traders who turn up and serve well. We are self-contained and leave the pitch tidy. Typical bookings include charity days and PTA summer fairs, serving halloumi skewers, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken.
Around Coxheath, a fête or summer fair suits a hog roast. Send us the pitch and access details. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Halal is not offered
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
Give us a contact on the day, especially for big events.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. In late May, sunset in Coxheath is about 8:50pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:15pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
