A hog roast near Lancing
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children usually like it too.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
