How it works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Late-September events in Horsham 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 arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

FAQs for Horsham
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you do a hog roast in Warnham Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you do gluten-free?

School fairs suit a hog roast. Check vehicle access with the school.

Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
What the cooking area needs
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A queuing area
- A firm way on and off the field
- A level pitch with firm ground
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, especially after rain.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
