How our hog roast for events works in Stedham

How the day works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event. In late May, sunset in Stedham is about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

What else we do in Stedham
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Make the stall easy to find
- Balance the food line-up
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
What affects the price in Stedham
The biggest factors are:
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Rough numbers
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Stedham questions
Is Stedham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you trade at school fairs around Stedham?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Is it pay as you go?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We’ll agree what suits yours.
Do you have documents for event organisers?
Organisers often ask for a risk assessment or gas safety details. Let us know what you need.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Stedham and West Sussex. Send us the address for a quote.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
