How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. On a winter shoot near Willesden Green, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack away straight after service.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Willesden Green
What if our house in Willesden Green has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in Roundwood Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Where do you set up on a shoot?
Typically, if there’s a level, open spot for the roaster under cover. Locations will confirm the spot.
What about locations off the beaten track?
We can, given access details. Tell us about tracks and ground.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
