Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a party buffet, hot carved pork feels more special, and nothing sits out all afternoon. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why us?
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Carved to order by a chef
- No surprises: everything in writing
- A choice of salads and potatoes

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees

What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The address or postcode
- Rough numbers
- Dietary requirements
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Staplecross questions
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Staplecross too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you cover Staplecross?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Staplecross and the rest of East Sussex included. Send us the address for a quote.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How it works
