Hog roast for events near Pulborough
School fairs and sports days need food that families like. There are options for most visitors. On the menu are apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken, and we’re frequently booked for club events and car shows and rallies.
Summer fairs around Pulborough are frequently run by volunteers, so a self-contained hog roast helps. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Working with your venue
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Show allergens at the stall
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Halal is not offered
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
We serve as the queue moves.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Questions from Pulborough
Is Pulborough close to London?
About 41 miles from central London.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What about visitors who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what your event requires, and we will tell you what we can send.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. In December, Pulborough is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
