The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At midsummer, events in Furnace Green stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
How to prepare
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Common questions in Furnace Green
Can you come to a school fair in Furnace Green?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Is Furnace Green close to London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What do you need from the organiser?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. A supply is useful for lights.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
We do. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
Do you cover Furnace Green?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Furnace Green and West Sussex. Send us the address for a quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A hog roast compared with other options
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls gives visitors a good choice. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
- Timed around your day
