Party hog roast in Whitehawk, slow-roasted on site
After a christening near Whitehawk, a hog roast in the garden feeds the whole family, and nobody misses the celebration. Whether it is leaving and retirement do’s and back-garden get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of hog roast rolls, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage.

Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Step by step
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. Sunset in Whitehawk is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Catered or do it yourself?
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.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Planned to your running order

FAQs for Whitehawk
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
We are gathering after a service at St Cuthman's: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Is our garden suitable?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we will tell you if it works.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
