Your questions about a hog roast in West Kingston

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What about windy coastal sites?

Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

What if things run late?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

What’s the price?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.

Will people get crackling?

Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.

What comes with the hog roast?

About our hog roast hire in West Kingston

The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We serve coleslaw, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater christmas fairs and weddings and receptions.

In a small place like West Kingston, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.

The process

The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Around midsummer it stays light in West Kingston until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is typically in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

  1. You share the when, where and how many.
  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Let us know about tight access

Before you choose a spot

  • A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
  • Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Planners, venues and businesses

Catered or do it yourself?

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
