A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Chislehurst hosts choose us
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Carved to order by a chef
- Planned to your running order

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
For event organisers in Chislehurst
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Where the roaster can go in Chislehurst
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A safe distance from other traders
- Your trader requirements
- A firm way on and off the field
Chislehurst is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus

- Halal is not offered
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Chicken widens the choice.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some visitors will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. At midsummer, events in Chislehurst stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Send final numbers in good time
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
