How our party hog roast works in Burwash Weald
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. We are often asked to cater retirement parties and neighbourhood parties, serving coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
In a small place like Burwash Weald, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.

How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Burwash Weald, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
