Hog roast for events in Selsey, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Selsey. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, so visitors get hot food fast. On the menu are hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and a vegan burger or sausage, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and community events.
In Selsey, fêtes and school fairs are perfect for a hog roast: it draws a crowd and serves hot food quickly. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

For event organisers in Selsey
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Show allergens at the stall
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The process
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Late-September events in Selsey lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
How to prepare
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.

Common questions in Selsey
Can you roast near the sea around Selsey?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you trade at school fairs around Selsey?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with cold food stalls, hot rolls are welcome whatever the weather. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
