Hog roast for events near Ticehurst
Agricultural shows and country events near Ticehurst are a natural home for a hog roast, on a field, serving all day. We’re frequently asked to cater car and steam shows and festivals, serving rotisserie chicken, a vegan burger or sausage and apple sauce.
At a field event near Ticehurst, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late-September events in Ticehurst lose the light at about 7:00pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.

- 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.
