Wingham Green questions
Can you come to a school fair in Wingham Green?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you come out to small places like Wingham Green?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
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 picture if you are unsure.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what your event requires, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Is electricity needed?
Cooking is gas-fired. Power helps for lighting.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In December, Wingham Green is dark by about 3:50pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
