Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Balance the food line-up
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.

How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late-September events in Plaistow lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, we take the cooking off your volunteers. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Carved to order by a chef
- An itemised quote
- Planned to your running order

Questions from Plaistow
Which station is closest to Plaistow?

Could you cook in Downham Fields?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
Yes, fêtes are a natural fit. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
