Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
Party hog roast in Wadhurst, carved to order
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most hosts prefer us to do it, so they can enjoy the party. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling, and we’re regularly asked to cater naming ceremonies and back-garden get-togethers.
For a party in Wadhurst, home is frequently the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will do the rest. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Wadhurst questions
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.
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
