Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Sunset in Westmeston is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.

- A picture of the cooking area
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Dietary requirements
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
