A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.

Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Common questions in Winchelsea
Could you cook in Rye Harbour LNR?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you roast near the sea around Winchelsea?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we get the amounts right.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
