Loughborough Junction questions

We are gathering after a service at St Matthew's Camberwell: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.

Could you cook in Max Roach Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What about guests who don’t eat pork?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.

What’s included?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

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 will quote.

Is mains power needed?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How do we prepare?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork
Give us numbers for the alternatives
Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
Check with family about dietary needs

One contact for the day helps, so the immediate family isn’t disturbed.

Plates and sides make it a full meal.

Organising for someone else?

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Planning the cooking spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:

Space inside for guests
A level spot outdoors for the roaster
Vehicle access near the cooking area

As a London location, Loughborough Junction is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

The process

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-December sunset in Loughborough Junction is about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting by the food. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.
