The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- All the equipment comes with us
- Served at the time you choose

Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- A contact in production
- Vehicle access to base
- Shelter for crew
Little Stanmore 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 are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. On a winter shoot near Little Stanmore, 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 confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
