Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Plaistow
Is Plaistow too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Plaistow from London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us about delays.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Planned to your running order
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Our staff serve and clear

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. A lunchtime Christmas party in Plaistow is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
