How hog roast hire works in TN32

With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. We’re often asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and corporate events, serving hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.

The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves.

Hog roast hire across TN32

There are 3 towns and 14 villages and hamlets in TN32, so the setting can be anything from Robertsbridge, Staplecross and Northbridge Street to a quiet hamlet: level ground, access and agreed timings. The High Weald National Landscape is within easy reach of places across TN32, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events.

Robertsbridge: Nearby historic houses include Durhamford Manor (3.8 miles south-east) and Bateman's (3.9 miles west). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one. For a fundraiser at a school like Salehurst Church of England Primary School, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. Light matters for a long roast: in Robertsbridge, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

TN32: your questions answered

What’s included?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Is crackling included?

It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.

Do you leave the area tidy?

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

How much will it be?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.

Will there be enough to go round?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
