Hog roast for events for Edmonton
Edmonton: your questions answered
What if our house in Edmonton has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in Pymmes Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you help with a fundraiser?
Tell us about the event and how you’d like to raise money, and we will suggest options.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
That depends on the event. Tell us what you have in mind and we will talk it through.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
How our hog roast for events works in Edmonton
How the food is paid for depends on the event: a package or a pay-as-you-go stall. Tell us how you’d like it to work. We serve crackling, hog roast rolls and apple sauce, and we are frequently booked for tournaments and sports days and car shows and rallies.
Events in Edmonton range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Organisers generally need council permission for public spaces, and the roaster needs a pitch with clearance. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Access for our vehicle to the pitch
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- A level pitch
Edmonton 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’ll advise.

Fairs, fêtes and events in Edmonton
Edmonton is about 9 miles north-east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Hosts in Edmonton book us for events of all sizes. Edmonton is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Edmonton to London (about 9 miles away).
If your event is in Pymmes Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for hot-food traders and vehicles. If visitors are coming by train, Edmonton has its own station, Edmonton Green station.
Events anywhere in N9, N18, N13 and EN1 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Local streets include The Broadway, Plevna Road and Galahad Road; an event on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Edmonton sits on or near the B137 and B154, so getting the roaster to your event is simple. For events just outside Edmonton, we cover Upper Edmonton (1 mile south), Picketts Lock (1 mile east), Northumberland Park (1 mile south), Ponders End (1 mile north-east) and Bush Hill Park (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover London (9 miles south), City of Westminster (9 miles south-west), Marylebone (8 miles south-west), Kensington (10 miles south-west), St Pancras (7 miles south) and Shoreditch (7 miles south).
A little further out are Municipal Borough of Edmonton (0.5 miles south-west) and Museum of Enfield (2.1 miles north-west). The countryside around Edmonton includes Highams Park Lake and Ainslie Wood.
- Nearby schools include The Latymer School (0.6 miles west) and Starks Field School (0.7 miles north-west)
- Pubs nearby include NiW Furniture pub (0.7 miles north)
What affects the price in Edmonton
Each price is built from:
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
- Travel to Edmonton
- Time on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.

Other occasions in Edmonton
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
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.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. At midsummer, events in Edmonton stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
How to get a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
