How hog roast hire works in GU29
Booking a hog roast means you don’t have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Typical bookings include community events and garden parties and barbecues, serving salads, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.

Hog roast hire across GU29
Across GU29, we cover 3 towns and 19 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Midhurst, Easebourne and Stedham or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan. Parts of GU29 are within a few miles of the South Downs National Park, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles.
Midhurst: After a service at Roman Catholic Church of Divine Motherhood, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. Historic houses near Midhurst include Cowdray House (0.6 miles north-east). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you’re booking one. Around midsummer it stays light in Midhurst until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, 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 we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Is a hog roast right for you?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which usually keeps the cost down.

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:

- Permission from the venue or landowner
