Slow-roasted pork in Tinsley Green

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

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.

Hog roast hire for your event in Tinsley Green

In Tinsley Green, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: a single slow roast, carved to order. Everything comes with us, and our staff serve and clear. For birthdays and anniversaries and village fêtes and school fairs, we’ll put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, hog roast rolls and new potatoes and more.

In a hamlet or village like Tinsley Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Our full booking checklist

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which frequently makes it better value. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why Tinsley Green hosts choose us

  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Served at the time you choose

See our prices page and what a hog roast costs.

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.

Planning a hog roast in Tinsley Green

Tinsley Green is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Tinsley Green to Guildford (20 miles away).

Churches such as St Michael and All Angels Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by generally does. A green space like Worth Park Gardens is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, usually the council’s.
