About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.

Common questions in Burwash Common
Is Burwash Common close to London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Burwash Common too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we get the amounts right.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. A summer party in Burwash Common stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
