How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. After-work summer events in Stanton St John have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 9:00pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:10pm.
- Start with the date, site and numbers.
- We check with facilities and quote.
- We roast on site.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Is Stanton St John close to London?

Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you set up in our car park?
Most car parks and yards are fine, given level ground and clearance.
What the cooking area needs
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A named contact for the day
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and normally better value. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Our staff serve and clear

Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
