DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

Working with your venue

South Mundham questions
Which station is closest to South Mundham?
The closest is Chichester station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast in Avisford?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
