A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Why us?
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Served at the time you choose
Take a look at our pricing or the cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Plan separately for halal if needed
We work to the location’s rules.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
What affects the price in Pimlico
We work out each quote from:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The venue or postcode
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Roughly how many people
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or SW1P postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Because the roast starts early, and winter daylight in Pimlico ends around 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We clear our spot.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Common questions in Pimlico
Can you do a hog roast in Pimlico Gardens?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What if our house in Pimlico has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you cover Pimlico?
Yes, Pimlico is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you have alternatives?
We can add chicken, lamb or vegetarian options.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
