Hog roast hire in Winton, slow-roasted on site

Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, 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. Popular choices include salads, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for weddings, day or evening and birthdays and anniversaries.

Somewhere like Winton, a yard or firm field often works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

A hog roast compared with other options

Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves plenty of people from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Timed around your day
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Planning for dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them

We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

How the day works

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Late September evenings in Winton lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
  4. We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

For planners, venues and organisers

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

The menu, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.

Common questions in Winton

Which station is closest to Winton?

Berwick (Sussex) station, about 1.9 miles north of the centre.

We are gathering after a service at Church of St. Andrew: 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.

How much room do you need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.

What happens when we hire a hog roast?

You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.

Is mains power needed?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.

How soon do you get booked up?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
