Palmers Green questions
What if our house in Palmers Green has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Broomfield Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Where do you set up on a shoot?
A level outdoor spot clear of trucks and kit.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.

The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In December, daylight in Palmers Green ends around 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 agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- Service is quick.
- We leave base tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
