Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How our hog roast hire works in Barnham
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that’s hog roast hire in Barnham. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, with sides and extras to choose from. Typical bookings include festive gatherings and wakes and memorial gatherings, with new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken.
Somewhere as small as Barnham, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Evenings in Barnham stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
