Rowley Green questions
What’s the nearest station to Rowley Green?
Elstree & Borehamwood station, about 1.4 miles west of the centre.
Could you cook in Barnet Gate Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
It can be dressed up, with plates or china.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and generally better value. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.

Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Organising for someone else?
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
