Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
Ask about china.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. At midsummer, daylight in Wandsworth lasts until about 9:20pm, which suits an evening wrap at base.

Space, access and the venue
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A named contact at base
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- Flat ground at the unit base
As a London location, Wandsworth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to grilling to order, one roast serves everyone together. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- An itemised quote
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- A choice of salads and potatoes

About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
