What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- Shelter for the team
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
As a London location, Bowes Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten

We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
