DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day, so we can find you quickly.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we’ll fit in.
Ruislip Gardens questions

The closest is South Ruislip station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
It can be dressed up, with plates or china.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you cater in Ruislip Gardens?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A contact on site
Ruislip Gardens is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why Ruislip Gardens hosts choose us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

What happens on the day
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. For a staff lunch in Ruislip Gardens, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
