Hog roast hire for Peasmarsh

About our hog roast hire in Peasmarsh

The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We’re frequently asked to cater club events and presentations and gatherings after a funeral, serving rotisserie chicken, crackling and salads.

In a small place like Peasmarsh, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Your questions about a hog roast in Peasmarsh

We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.

Is Peasmarsh too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What space does the roaster need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

What about guests who don’t eat pork?

There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.

Do you come to Peasmarsh?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, Peasmarsh and the rest of East Sussex included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Why choose a hog roast in Peasmarsh?

A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. 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, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Why Peasmarsh hosts choose us

  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • Planned to your running order
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it

Read our prices page and what a hog roast costs.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What happens on the day

Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Evenings in Peasmarsh stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

How we price a hog roast

Things that change the price:

  • How long the roast and service take
  • Numbers
  • Travel to Peasmarsh
  • Site access

A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Details that help

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • The address or postcode
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • Dietary requirements

When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, use our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are 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 everyone in the loop.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Cover for your guests in bad weather
  • A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
