A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- One contact for the day
- Shelter for crew
- A safe distance from kit
Highams Park 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’ll say what we think.

Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Post allergen details at base
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
Name a contact for the day.
