What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Christmas parties in Ruislip are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.

Planning help
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a plated turkey lunch, a hog roast is more relaxed. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
