Hog roast for events in Hadley, slow-roasted on site

Shows and festivals last all day, and a hog roast can serve through the day. Whether it’s festivals and country shows, we can cook halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls and more.

London street parties and fairs in Hadley need careful planning around road closures and access. Tell us the pitch details and timings. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What the cooking area needs

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • Any paperwork the organisers need
  • Space for people to queue
  • A level pitch with firm ground

As a London location, Hadley is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Why choose a hog roast in Hadley?

Compared with a barbecue stall, a hog roast serves quickly from one roast. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Hadley events: pitches and permissions

Hadley is about 1 mile north-west of Barnet, in Greater London. We cater events at homes, halls, workplaces and venues in Hadley and the surrounding area. We bring hog roasts to all 764 towns and villages across Greater London. Our bookings stretch from Hadley to London (about 12 miles away).

A school like Susi Earnshaw Theatre School can book a hog roast for a fair, fun run or sports day. If your event is in King George's Fields (Monken Hadley), the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for hot-food traders and vehicles.

Events anywhere in EN5 and EN4 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and a serving time. We can cater an event on streets such as Byng Road, Park Road and Dury Road, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. Being close to the A1081, Hadley is simple for us to get to with the roaster. Neighbouring places where we cater events include High Barnet (1 mile west), Kitts End (1 mile north), Arkley (1 mile south-west), Totteridge (1 mile south) and Dancers Hill (2 miles north).

Full catering or machine hire?

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Put the menu and allergen information on display
  • Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
  • Balance the food line-up
  • Signpost the stall clearly

We serve as the queue moves.

Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.

What we serve, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.

Rotisserie chicken

For visitors who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.

How the day works

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In December, Hadley is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.

  1. Share the date, site and expected crowds.
  2. We discuss the package or stall options.
  3. We roast on the pitch.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
