Lunch breaks are often fixed, so the roast is timed to the minute and serve quickly. Rolls keep service fast. For team days and away days and open days and family days, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, spit-roast lamb and salads and more.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

For event organisers in Willesden
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we’ll fit in.

Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, often with mint sauce.

Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
