Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Evening parties in Glynde need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.

Working with your venue
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to ordering takeaway, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- Plates or china
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Questions from Glynde
Can you do a hog roast in Lewes and Laughton Levels?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Often, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A photo helps.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
It’s worth warning them: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A spot well away from the house
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
