Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is
- Dietary requirements
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Send us the date, the address or DA17 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We will confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late-May events in Belvedere have light until about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why Belvedere hosts choose us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Timed around your day

What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A queuing area
- Details of what the event requires
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
As a London location, Belvedere 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.
What we serve
- Halloumi skewers (V)

What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Make the stall easy to find
- Halal is not offered
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
We serve as the queue moves.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
