Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, we take the cooking off your volunteers. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why book our hog roast in Telscombe Cliffs

  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

For event organisers in Telscombe Cliffs

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Planning for dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
  • Remember stuffing generally contains gluten
  • Halal is not offered
  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request

We work to your event plan, including when vehicles can move.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Telscombe Cliffs

What about windy coastal sites?

Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.

Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

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.

Can you sell directly to visitors?

Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We will work it out together.

What do you need from us on the day?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.

When should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.

Do you have documents for event organisers?

Send us your trader requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.

Who serves?

You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.

Step by step

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. Late-September events in Telscombe Cliffs lose the light at about 7:05pm, so evening trading needs lights.

  1. Tell us about the event.
  2. We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
  3. The roast starts before the gates open.
  4. We carve to order through the day.
  5. We pack down and take our waste.

Before we arrive

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Let us know about tight access

Getting a price

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • An estimate of numbers

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
