A hog roast or other catering?
Next to volunteers cooking, we take the cooking off your volunteers. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A level pitch
- Details of what the event requires
- Permission for cooking on the site
Crouch End 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
