Hog roast hire for your event in Framfield
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that’s what you get when you book a hog roast in Framfield. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, salads and coleslaw, and we’re often booked for club events and presentations and gatherings after a funeral.
In a small place like Framfield, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Your questions about a hog roast in Framfield
What’s the nearest station to Framfield?
The closest is Uckfield station, roughly 1.6 miles away.
Is Framfield too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Describe the space and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Working with your venue
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access to the cooking area
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- An estimate of numbers
- Allergies we should know about
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
