Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- Event approval for hot-food traders
As a London location, Selhurst 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, we take the cooking off your volunteers. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved to order by a chef
- Planned to your running order
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Step by step
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your visitors, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late-September events in Selhurst lose the light at about 7:05pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
