Hog roast hire across PO20

With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. We’re often asked to cater sports clubs and societies and work summer parties, with rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes.

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Hog roast catering in PO20: local guide

PO20 covers everything from Chichester, Selsey and Portfield to 30 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground. Around 34 places in PO20 are close to the coast, so we frequently plan a sheltered cooking spot.

Selsey: School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Seal Primary Academy, can book a hog roast stall. If you’re gathering after a service at a church like St Peter's Church, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast. Evenings in Selsey stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

What affects the price in PO20

Each price is built from:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Plates or china
  • The journey to the venue
  • Time on site

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Getting an accurate quote

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Which meats and sides you’d like

DIY versus a catered hog roast

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

For event organisers in PO20

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.

If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Looking after everyone

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
  • We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
  • Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages

We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.

We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.

Is a hog roast right for you?

Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves plenty of people from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook.

What your quote should include

  • What the cooking area needs: space, cover and access
  • Whether travel is included
  • If the price includes VAT
  • The full menu and the sides
