Your questions about a hog roast day in Burwood Park
How far is Burwood Park from London?
About 17 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a hog roast in West End Common?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Where will the roaster go?
In the grounds, never in the kitchen and away from opening windows.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we are 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.
How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. By late September, the light in Burwood Park goes at about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- We roast through the morning.
- We serve inside or out.
- We clear away quietly.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Gather dietary requirements early
How to get a price
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
