About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Site access
- Numbers
- Distance from us

Goose Green questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Goose Green close to London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. They may want a roll.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.

What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. For an evening party in Goose Green, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
