Hog roast catering in BN17: local guide
From Littlehampton, Rustington and Wick to 4 villages and hamlets, bookings across BN17 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground. Around 8 places in BN17 are close to the coast, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.
Littlehampton: Among the historic houses close to Littlehampton are Ecclesden Manor (2.9 miles north-east). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one. For guests coming by train, the closest railway station is Littlehampton station, roughly 0.7 miles west of the centre. Around midsummer it stays light in Littlehampton until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Events we cater in BN17

Space, access and the venue
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Questions from BN17
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What meats can we have?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
