Hog roast for events for Pell Green
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. In December, Pell Green is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Hog roast for events near Pell Green
How the food is paid for depends on the event: a package or a pay-as-you-go stall. Let us know what you have in mind. Typical bookings include fundraising events and agricultural and country shows, with a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
At a field event near Pell Green, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. Timings are planned around your event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

- Show allergens at the stall
- Balance the food line-up

We clear the pitch and take everything away.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is 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.
Questions from Pell Green
Is Pell Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
Do you need power on site?
Just a pitch, access and any agreed paperwork. Everything else comes with us.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
