Our hog roast hire in BN13
In BN13, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. On the menu are new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and school fairs and parties at home.
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Prices in BN13
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Hog roast catering in BN13: local guide
BN13 covers everything from Worthing, Durrington and Salvington to 4 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground. 10 of the places we cover in BN13 are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we frequently plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.
Worthing: For anyone arriving by rail, the closest railway station is West Worthing station, roughly 0.5 miles south-east of the centre. After a service at St Andrew's Church, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. In Worthing, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- Permission from the venue or landowner
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
What affects the price in BN13
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- How many people are eating
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The date and time of the event
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.
