Hog roast hire for your event in Binsted

We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. For christmas parties and clubhouse events, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken and more.

In a small place like Binsted, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Common questions in Binsted

How far is Binsted from London?

About 50 miles from central London.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?

You can have us cook, or hire the machine. We’ll explain what’s included in each when we quote.

What space does the roaster need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.

Is there a non-pork option?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Do you travel across West Sussex?

All of West Sussex is in our area. Tell us the venue for a quote.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

How we price a hog roast

Your quote depends on:

  • Travel to Binsted
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • How long the roast and service take

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Details that help

When you contact us, please mention:

  • Dietary requirements
  • The address or postcode
  • Rough numbers
  • What the outdoor space is like

Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them

We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.

Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

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

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

The menu, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.

Roast pork

Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which generally keeps the cost down. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why Binsted hosts choose us

  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
