Choosing a hog roast caterer

Working with your venue

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.

Looking after everyone

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly

Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Domewood: venues, access and local tips

Domewood is about 3 miles west of East Grinstead, in West Sussex. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Domewood and the surrounding area. Domewood is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Domewood to Brighton (about 22 miles away).

Nearby historic houses include Saint Hill Manor (3.5 miles south-east) and Gravetye Manor (3.9 miles south). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one. PTAs at schools such as Imberhorne School frequently look for a hot-food stall for fairs and sports days. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Domewood, and some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles on site. Ask your venue about gas cooking and access.

Events anywhere in RH10 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster. That could mean an event in a garden on Herons Lea, Herons Close and Snow Hill, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. Nearby, we also cater events in Snow Hill (1 mile south-west), Furnace Wood (1 mile south-east), Felbridge (1 mile east), Crawley Down (1 mile south) and Newchapel (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Crawley (5 miles south-west), Horsham (12 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (10 miles south), Burgess Hill (13 miles south), East Grinstead (3 miles east) and Broadfield (6 miles south-west).

Should I cook it myself?

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.

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Is Domewood close to London?

Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

How far ahead should we book?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.

Is crackling included?

It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.

DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Can you work around our timings?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

What is hog roast hire?

We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.

What happens on the day

We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. In Domewood, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm 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.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
