Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal is not offered
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
China crockery is available on request.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At midsummer, daylight in Northwick Park lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- Tell us the base location.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Think about shelter for your crew

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Northwick Park?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

Can you cater for vegans on set?
We can add chicken, lamb or vegetarian options.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you serve at our lunch call?
That is exactly how we work.
What does the production need from you?
Send us your requirements, and we will tell you what we can send.
