Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Langton Green
We’re gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A hog roast compared with other options
DIY or catered? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger parties. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
