The process

We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your crew will smell it long before they see it. On a winter shoot near Luxted, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. We check access to base and quote.
  3. We agree our position at base with the location manager.
  4. We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
  5. We pack away straight after service.

Preparing for the day

  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Think about shelter for your crew
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Why choose a hog roast in Luxted?

For a wrap party, it’s a relaxed way to finish. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why book with us

  • An itemised quote
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork

Read our pricing or the cost guide.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Plan separately for halal if needed
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Post allergen details at base
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten

Give us one contact in production, typically locations or the production office.

Wrap parties can run into the evening.

What comes off the roaster

Spit-roast lamb

Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for crew who do not eat pork.

Rotisserie chicken

Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates.

Organising for someone else?

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Where the roaster can go in Luxted

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • One contact for the day
  • Flat ground at the unit base
  • Clearance from trucks, kit and trees

Luxted 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

  • Hog roast rolls
