A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast doesn’t need a kitchen, which often makes it better value. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Windmill Hill hosts choose us
- Planned to your running order
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- All the equipment comes with us

Windmill Hill questions
We’re gathering after a service at Herstmonceux Free Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Windmill Hill too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Will people get crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
