What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- Parking close to the house
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Planning help
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Think about children’s portions
- Request gluten-free rolls
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
Organising for someone else?
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Why choose a hog roast in Henfield?

How far is Henfield from London?
About 40 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?

We bring cover for the roaster; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A photo helps.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What affects the price in Henfield
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
