Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Make the stall easy to find
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.

How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Chingford Mount are dark by about 3:50pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
