Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Little Chelsea
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Little Chelsea?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Burton’s Court?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What paperwork do you provide?
Requirements vary by production; share your list and we will respond.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We work to your schedule.

What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some crew will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We clear our spot after lunch.
Add salads and potatoes for a full lunch.
Planners, venues and businesses
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Little Chelsea ends around 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
