Hog roast for events in Hardham, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Hardham. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. On the menu are crackling, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for charity fundraisers and PTA summer fairs.
A fête near Hardham might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that’s fine. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- A safe distance from other traders
- A firm way on and off the field

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

How the day works
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late-September events in Hardham lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
At large shows, tell us expected numbers. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What you get with us
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Timed around your day
- An itemised quote

Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
