Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Fittleworth: your questions answered
How far is Fittleworth from London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London.
Is Fittleworth too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you cater in Fittleworth?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Fittleworth and the rest of West Sussex included. Send us the address for a quote.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In Fittleworth, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
