Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Kitts End
What if our house in Kitts End has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in King George's Fields (Monken Hadley)?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you need power on site?
Cooking is gas-fired. Power helps for lighting.
Can you come to our fête?
We love fêtes. Ask for details.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Access for our vehicle to the pitch
- Details of what the event requires
- A level pitch
As a London location, Kitts End is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, timed for the gates opening.
Add coleslaw.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
