The process
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. By late September, sunset in Tortington is around 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Plates or china
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Travel to Tortington
- The serving time and how long we are on site
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
When you get in touch, please mention:
- Any venue rules
- Your date and serving time
- What the outdoor space is like
- Allergies we should know about
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, fill in our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Access for our equipment, without steps
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Tortington questions
Can you roast near the sea around Tortington?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What’s the nearest station to Tortington?
Tortington has its own station: Ford station.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your event for a quote.
Do you serve the crackling?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
