Slow-roasted pork in Oakthorpe Park
Oakthorpe Park: your questions answered
Could you cook in Broomfield Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Oakthorpe Park?
Oakthorpe Park has its own station: Palmers Green station.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
