About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Sibertswold: your questions answered
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Will people get crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How does hog roast hire work?
We roast on site, carve to order and serve, in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. Buffets can sit out for hours. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why book with us
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Served at the time you choose
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Fresh carving at the serving station

Step by step
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Light matters for a long roast: in Sibertswold, sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
