Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Nutley
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Nutley close to London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
What do you need from the organiser?
Just a pitch, access and any agreed paperwork. Everything else comes with us.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Plan separately for halal if needed
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a burger van, a hog roast stands out at a traditional fête. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
Take a look at our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.

The process
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In December, Nutley is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
