Hog roast for events in Itchingfield, slow-roasted on site
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Itchingfield. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, so visitors get hot food fast. For school events and community days and street fairs, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers and more.
Rural events near Itchingfield can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast goes down well. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is 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.

How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late-September events in Itchingfield lose the light at about 7:05pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
