What happens on the day
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Bosham Hoe, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
