Slow-roasted pork in Parker's Green
How the day works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Daytime open days in Parker's Green are rarely affected by light, but in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so late events need lighting.

Common questions in Parker's Green
Is Parker's Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Parker's Green close to London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can it be more formal?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Why choose a hog roast in Parker's Green?
Compared with individual food vans, a hog roast feeds a lot of people quickly from one roast. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
Give us a contact on site for the day, so we can find you quickly.
China crockery is available for client events.
