Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:

- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Clearance from walls and branches
As a London location, South Tottenham 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
If the service runs late, we wait.
Let us know if there is something the person especially liked.
Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
