How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. By about 3:50pm in late December, Dagenham Green is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- Book early for December.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Dagenham Green: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Parsloes Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Dagenham Green?
Dagenham Dock station, in Dagenham Green itself.
What about Christmas markets?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Send us the details.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do guests have to eat outside?
The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.
How early should we book for Christmas?
Very quickly, so ask early. Midweek dates are easier.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
We can: add turkey to the menu.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
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.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label alternatives clearly
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Add dietary questions to the invite
We set up while it’s still light, then roast through the afternoon.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book our hog roast in Dagenham Green
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Timed around your day
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
