Common questions in Plaistow
What if our house in Plaistow has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in Downham Fields?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Hot food suits winter perfectly.
What’s included?
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.
Do you do Christmas fairs?
We do. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
We pack up whatever the weather.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.

Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A short route for our equipment
As a London location, Plaistow 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.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. By about 3:55pm in late December, Plaistow is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
