Looking after everyone

- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Prices and what affects them
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
- The journey to the venue
- Time on site
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Your menu choices
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the cooking area
Every party is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your party: send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. At midsummer, it is light in Waldron until about 9:15pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Let us know about tight access

Waldron parties: what to know
Waldron is about 5 miles east of Uckfield, in East Sussex. We cater parties across Waldron and nearby, from gardens to fields. Waldron is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Waldron to Brighton (about 17 miles away).
If you had Passingworth Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as The Parish Church of All Saints, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards. Waldron is within about 6 miles of the High Weald National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
Parties anywhere in TN21 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster. We can cater a party on streets such as Whitehouse Lane and North Street or the roads around them, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. If your venue is just outside Waldron, we also cover Roser's Cross (1 mile north), Lions Green (1 mile south-east), Cross in Hand (1 mile north-east), Maynard's Green (2 miles east) and Sandy Cross (2 miles east). We also serve nearby towns such as Eastbourne (12 miles south), Bexhill-on-Sea (14 miles south-east), Seaford (13 miles south), Lewes (10 miles south-west), Hailsham (7 miles south) and Crowborough (7 miles north).
A little further out are Uckfield Community Hospital (4.4 miles west) and Tickerage Castle (2.6 miles north-west). Within reach you will find Selwyns Wood.
