Hog roast hire in Slindon
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We’ll agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
How our hog roast hire works in Slindon
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. For wedding breakfasts and evening food and village fêtes and school fairs, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers and more.
Somewhere as small as Slindon, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Common questions in Slindon
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
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’ll bring the rest.
Do you serve the crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you come to Slindon?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Slindon and West Sussex. Send us the address for a quote.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Slindon hosts choose us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- An itemised quote

About the food
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Step by step
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In Slindon, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
