Common questions in Hounslow West
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Paul?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Hounslow West?
Hounslow station, about 1.2 miles east of the centre.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What do we need to organise?
Very little: the space and a contact.
Is there an alternative to pork?
There are chicken, vegetarian and vegan alternatives. We do not offer halal meat.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
If the service runs late, we wait.
Plates and sides make it a full meal.
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Most wakes in Hounslow West are held in the afternoon, which is daylight for most of the year, though in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- It starts with the date, venue and when people are expected.
- We confirm availability and send a price.
- The roast cooks while the service is under way.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with family members cooking, a catered hog roast lets everyone be together. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why Hounslow West hosts choose us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Planned to your running order
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A safe distance from the hall
- Permission from the hall or venue
- Parking close by for our vehicle
Hounslow West is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
