About hog roast hire in BN27

In BN27, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. We are frequently asked to cater christmas fairs and wedding breakfasts and evening food, with salads, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.

  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We pack away and leave you to it.

A hog roast across BN27: what to know

Across BN27, we cover 3 towns and 18 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Hailsham, Upper Horsebridge and Hellingly to a quiet hamlet: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.

Hailsham: If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Hailsham Community College, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Churches such as The Parish Church of Saint Mary rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by usually does. Around midsummer it stays light in Hailsham until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is generally in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

What a hog roast costs

We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:

  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Crockery choices
  • How many people are eating

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

What to tell us

To check the date and the space, we’ll need:

  • Rough numbers
  • The date and time of the event
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Anything the venue has asked for

Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
  • A safe distance from walls, tents and trees

What we serve, dish by dish

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

Crackling

Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.

FAQs for BN27

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How much room do you need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.

What if it rains?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

What if things run late?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
