How our hog roast hire works in Bramber
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it is carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Whether it is wakes and memorial gatherings and work summer parties, we can cook spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Bramber, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Light matters for a long roast: in Bramber, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Why us?
- Our staff serve and clear
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Timed around your day

Bramber: your questions answered
Could you cook in Hillside Park (parke sa Hiniusang Gingharian)?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Nicholas: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is crackling included?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Do you cover Bramber?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Do you travel across West Sussex?
We cater across West Sussex, including Bramber. Ask for a quote.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
