What else we do in Colliers Green
Organising for someone else?
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
We’ll be at the venue for most of the day, working quietly in the background.
Choose sides to make it a full meal.
Colliers Green: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you do a hog roast in The Gill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. For a summer wedding in Colliers Green, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
