Christmas hog roast in Little Portugal, slow-roasted on site

Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover everyone else. For festive family get-togethers and work Christmas parties, we can cook crackling, halloumi skewers and roast turkey and more.

Around Little Portugal, a Christmas booking needs a lit, covered outdoor cooking spot. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

The menu, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.

Roast turkey

For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved to order for a festive feel.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Why us?

  • Planned to your running order
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Serving and clearing done for you

Full catering or machine hire?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What a hog roast costs

We work out each quote from:

  • Crockery choices
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • How many people are eating
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

What we need to know

These are the details we need:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Where the event is
  • Rough numbers
  • What the outdoor space is like

Send us the date, the address or SW9 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal, quoted separately.

For event organisers in Little Portugal

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Step by step

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. A lunchtime Christmas party in Little Portugal is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

  1. Ask early for a December date.
  2. You get a quote with the menu.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Before we arrive

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Common questions in Little Portugal

Which station is closest to Little Portugal?

Wandsworth Road station, about 0.7 miles south-west of the centre.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Little Portugal?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

What comes with the hog roast?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?

Yes: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

How big a hog will we need?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.

Do you provide china?

Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Can the food be served indoors?

The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.

Planning the cooking spot

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:

  • Light by the serving table
  • A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
  • Clearance from walls and tents

As a London location, Little Portugal is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
