What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some visitors will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Show allergens at the stall
- Make the stall easy to find
- Plan separately for halal if needed
Tell us about ground conditions, particularly in wet weather.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.

What else we do in Brent Cross
Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. For an autumn event in Brent Cross, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
