What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- Shelter for crew
- Sign-off from the location
North Wembley is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Crockery choices
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How long the roast and service take
- Season and day of the week
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in North Wembley
What’s the nearest station to North Wembley?
Wembley Central station, in North Wembley itself.
Can you do a hog roast in Preston Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you serve at our lunch call?
That’s exactly how we work.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you go to remote locations?
Send the location and access notes and we will confirm.
Do you need much space at base?
Not much: a level area at base, agreed with locations.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What does the production need from you?
Tell us what the production needs, and we will confirm what we can provide.
How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late-September shoots near North Wembley lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Give us a contact number for the day

Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
