Questions from Worthing
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can you do a hog roast in Durrington Minature Railway?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can visitors buy their own food?
Both models are possible. We’ll work it out together.
Do you trade at school events?
School fairs suit a hog roast. Check vehicle access with the school.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
What do you need from the organiser?
Mainly a pitch and access. We bring the rest.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- Distance from us
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- A picture of the cooking area
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Show allergens at the stall
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
If the ground is soft, we’ll need a firm route on and off, especially after rain.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space for people to queue
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.

The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At midsummer, events in Worthing stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
