Common questions in Goose Green
Do you cater at venues 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.
Do you come out to small places like Goose Green?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is electricity needed?
Cooking is gas-fired. A supply is useful for lights.
How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your visitors will smell it long before they see it. For an autumn event in Goose Green, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- 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 carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
