Party hog roast in Burgess Hill, slow-roasted on site
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. Typical bookings include retirement parties and summer parties in the garden, with apple sauce, hog roast rolls and jacket potatoes.
In a town like Burgess Hill, a garden party with a hog roast is a classic choice, and a hall or club works if the garden is small. All we need is a level spot with clearance. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Burgess Hill
We’re gathering after a service at St John the Evangelist's 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 normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Burgess Hill?
Burgess Hill station, in Burgess Hill itself.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Do you bring a gazebo?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Do children like hog roasts?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
The process
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. By late September, sunset in Burgess Hill is about 7:05pm; by December it’s about 3:55pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Send final numbers in good time

About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, so the party carries on around us.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
