Questions from Lingfield Common
Can you do a hog roast in Lingfield Wildlife Area?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Is Lingfield Common close to London?
About 22 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing typically contains gluten.
