Questions from South Lambeth
What if our house in South Lambeth has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Vauxhall Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Can the food be served indoors?
Cooking is always outdoors; guests can eat inside.
Can we have roast turkey?
Yes: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
We work out each quote from:
- Site access
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How long the roast and service take
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The address or postcode
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or SW8 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.

A hog roast compared with other options
At a winter fair, hot pork rolls are always popular. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book our hog roast in South Lambeth
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Timed around your day
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
See our pricing and the cost guide.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
South Lambeth 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
