Crews in Brasted Chart work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater base catering and music video days.

Brasted Chart questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Brasted Chart?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Which station is closest to Brasted Chart?
The closest is Sevenoaks station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
There are chicken, lamb, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t offer halal meat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your crew will want somewhere dry to eat.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- A route for our vehicle
- A covered eating area
Brasted Chart 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

There’s no fixed price list, because every shoot is different. What matters most:
- Season and day of the week
- How long the roast and service take
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
