Hog roast hire for Broadland Row
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Broadland Row, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Let us know about tight access

Hog roast hire in Broadland Row, carved to order
In Broadland Row, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. Popular choices include salads, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater wakes and memorial gatherings and parties at home.
Somewhere as small as Broadland Row, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Planning a hog roast in Broadland Row
Broadland Row is about 6 miles north-east of Hastings, in East Sussex. We cater events of every size in Broadland Row. Broadland Row is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 30 miles away.
If you’re gathering after a service at a church like The Parish Church of St Mary, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast. Coming by train? Doleham station, about 1.9 miles south-west, is the nearest station. Broadland Row is within about 5 miles of the sea, and coastal sites can be windy. We think about wind when choosing the cooking spot and putting up the cover.
For events in TN31, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. Streets in the area include Hundredhouse Lane and Udimore Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Broad Oak (1 mile west), Udimore (1 mile east), Beckley Furnace (1 mile north-west), Doleham (2 miles south-west) and Broad Street (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Hastings (6 miles south-west), Bexhill-on-Sea (10 miles south-west), St Leonards (7 miles south-west), Hastings Old Town (6 miles south), Belmont (6 miles south) and Hollington (6 miles south-west).
A little further out are Conquest Hospital (4.8 miles south-west) and Barn Theatre and Museum (3.7 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Flatropers Wood.

Should I cook it myself?

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

Why Broadland Row hosts choose us
- Timed around your day
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
Read our prices page or our hog roast cost guide.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Broadland Row questions
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Broadland Row close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Will people get crackling?
It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
Is our garden big enough?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a photo.
Is all of East Sussex covered?
All of East Sussex is in our area. Send us the address and we will quote.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
