Is a hog roast right for your party?
Next to doing it all yourself, a catered hog roast gives you the day back. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- A clear quote with everything listed

- Cooked on the day, low and slow

Newick questions
Is Newick too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at Zion Chapel?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can you cater in Newick?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Newick and the rest of East Sussex included. Send us the address for a quote.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote.
How much room do you 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 will check it with you before booking.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- Distance from us
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Allergies we should know about
- An estimate of numbers
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.

How the day works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. A summer party in Newick stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
