What else we do in Higham Hill
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with cold food stalls, hot food is popular in any season. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Sides to make it a full meal
- No surprises: everything in writing

How it works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Summer events in Higham Hill have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

FAQs for Higham Hill
What if our house in Higham Hill has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Could you cook in Lloyd Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you come to Higham Hill?
Yes, Higham Hill is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
Both models are possible. We’ll work it out together.

Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
- A level pitch with firm ground
Higham Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
