Spit-roast lamb

Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way, often with mint sauce.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.

Hog roast hire in Worth, carved to order

In Worth, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. For sports clubs and societies and wedding breakfasts and evening food, we can cook salads, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken for your guests.

Around Worth, bookings are frequently at homes, village halls and playing fields. If access is tight, we will plan around it. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

How we price a hog roast

We work out each quote from:

  • Travel to Worth
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

Details that help

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • Where the event is
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • Your date and serving time

It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

How the day works

The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Worth, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

  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. The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

How to get a price

Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • Put the menu on the invitation

Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.

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

A hog roast in Worth: local details

Worth is about 2 miles east of Crawley, in West Sussex. We cater events of every size in Worth. Worth is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we cater. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 19 miles away.

If you are gathering after a service at a church like St Nicholas' Church, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast. If you had Worth Park Gardens in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Worth. Ask your venue about gas cooking and access.

Here we cover the RH10 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Your event could be at a house on Worth Road, Banks Road and Saxon Road, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Pound Hill (1 mile north), Maidenbower (1 mile south), Three Bridges (1 mile north-west), Tilgate (1 mile south-west) and Forge Wood (2 miles north). Within a short drive, we also cover Horsham (8 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (8 miles south), Burgess Hill (11 miles south), East Grinstead (6 miles east), Broadfield (3 miles south-west) and Billingshurst (15 miles south-west).

A little further out are Crawley Hospital (2.2 miles west) and County Mall (1.6 miles west). Within reach you’ll find Tilgate Lake.

  • Local schools include Oriel High School (0.7 miles south-west)
  • Pubs nearby include Dem Shish pub (less than half a mile north-west)

Worth questions

What’s the nearest station to Worth?

Three Bridges station, about 0.7 miles north-west of the centre.

Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.

Will people get crackling?

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

Do you cook it or do we?

Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.

Is mains power needed?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Is our garden big enough?

Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we’ll advise.

Do you travel across West Sussex?

We cover West Sussex and the rest of London and the South East. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

A hog roast or other catering?

Next to a street-food van, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

Why Worth hosts choose us

  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Timed around your day
  • A clear quote with everything listed

Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

For planners, venues and organisers

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
