Hog roast hire across BN45
There are 3 towns and 3 villages and hamlets in BN45, so whether your event is in Pyecombe, Poynings and Saddlescombe or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan. Around 3 places in BN45 are close to the coast, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.
Pyecombe: For anyone arriving by rail, Hassocks station is about 1.9 miles away. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Downlands Community School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Late September evenings in Pyecombe lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Occasions we serve in BN45
A hog roast suits big outdoor gatherings in BN45: a whole hog goes a long way, and the carving is part of the event.
People around BN45 book us for small gatherings and big outdoor days alike. For example:
- Weddings and receptions
- Clubhouse events
- Summer garden parties
- Work summer parties
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
