FAQs for Dukes Green
Is Dukes Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to Dukes Green?
Berwick (Sussex) station, about 2.8 miles north of the centre.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is clearing up included?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- Neighbours warned about the smell
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Autumn parties in Dukes Green get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.
