How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Autumn parties in Denton get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Send us your party date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.

- We clear up and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

What else we do in Denton
Denton parties: what to know
Denton is about 1 mile north-east of Newhaven, in East Sussex. Parties in Denton are part of our patch. We cover all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. We cater events right across the region, from Denton to Brighton (about 9 miles away).
Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as Church of St Leonard, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards. Thinking of a hog roast in Castle Hill? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, generally the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. Denton is within about 5 miles of the South Downs National Park, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop. The coast is within about 3 miles, so breezy days are common, so we plan a sheltered spot.
Parties anywhere in BN9 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and a serving time. Whether your party is on New Road, Avis Road and Hill Road or a nearby road, we can set up and roast there. Denton sits on or near the A26 and A259, so getting the roaster to your party is simple. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include South Heighton (1 mile north), Piddinghoe (1 mile west), Rodmell (3 miles north-west), Telscombe (3 miles west) and Firle (3 miles north). Larger places within reach include Eastbourne (10 miles east), Seaford (3 miles south-east), Lewes (6 miles north-west), Hailsham (10 miles north-east), Uckfield (12 miles north) and Polegate (8 miles east).
A little further out are Arlington Castle (4.8 miles east) and Planet Earth Museum (within half a mile west). Green spaces nearby include Southerham Farm and Itford Hill.
- Schools near Denton include UTC@Harbourside (0.6 miles south-west)
- Nearby, you will find Flying Fish pub (under half a mile north-east)
Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
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.

Questions to ask before you book
- The menu, including sides and any extras
- What the price includes, item by item
- Who carves and who serves
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Think about children’s portions
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Denton questions
What’s the nearest station to Denton?
Newhaven Town station, about 0.6 miles south of the centre.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Leonard: 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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
