Sulham: your questions answered
Is Sulham close to London?
About 42 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you come to a school fair in Sulham?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Do you need power on site?
Mainly a pitch and access. We bring the rest.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
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.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you trade at school events?
Yes, if the school agrees. Send us the details.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We serve as the queue moves.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
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.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late-September events in Sulham lose the light at about 7:10pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
