Common questions in Little Horsted
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do a hog roast in Hempstead Meadow?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Do you do fêtes?
Yes, fêtes are a natural fit. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
