FAQs for Whitehall
Is Whitehall too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Whitehall from London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can the food be served indoors?
We cook outside, but can normally serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.

For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We tidy up and leave.
Getting ready for the day

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A short route for our equipment
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
