How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. On a winter shoot near Honor Oak, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Questions from Honor Oak
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Honor Oak?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Peckham Rye?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Can you cater for vegans on set?
Add alternatives to suit your crew.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you serve the food?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
Ask about china, quoted separately.
