Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Where the roaster can go in Perry Vale
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Indoor space for eating
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A short route for our equipment
Perry Vale is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
