How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. By late September, sunset in Baldslow is about 7:00pm; by December it’s about 3:55pm. Plan lights for the path and the food.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Access to the cooking area

- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Baldslow
What’s the nearest station to Baldslow?
The closest is Ore station, roughly 2.3 miles away.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What about kids?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A heads-up for next door
- A wet-weather plan for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
