Hog roast for events in Wartling

How our hog roast for events works in Wartling

Charity fundraisers in Wartling can use a hog roast to draw people in. Tell us about the event and we will suggest how it could work. We serve halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and a vegan burger or sausage, and we are frequently booked for town and village days and village fêtes.

Near Wartling, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Wartling: your questions answered

Is Wartling close to London?

About 48 miles from central London, and well within our area.

What’s the nearest station to Wartling?

The closest is Normans Bay station, roughly 2.7 miles away.

Do you come to Wartling?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, Wartling and the rest of East Sussex included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.

Do we need our own staff?

No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

What space does the roaster need?

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.

What if things run late?

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.

Full catering or machine hire?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

For event organisers in Wartling

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Where the roaster can go in Wartling

We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:

  • A safe distance from other traders
  • Space for people to queue
  • Any paperwork the organisers need

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

How we price a hog roast for your event

Each price is built from:

  • Menu choices and extras
  • Crockery choices
  • Distance from us
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Where the event is
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.

Take a look at how we price and the cost guide.

Allergies and dietary needs

Some visitors won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Halal is not offered
  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
  • Signpost the stall clearly
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten

We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.

A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.

Step by step

Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Wartling are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.

  1. Share the date, site and expected crowds.
  2. We agree how food will be paid for.
  3. We roast on the pitch.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We tidy the pitch.

How to prepare

  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Think about shelter for your visitors
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
