What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Late-May events in Silvertown have light until about 8:50pm, while at midsummer it is about 9:20pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Let us know about tight access
- Name a contact for the day
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
As a London location, Silvertown is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Silvertown: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Silvertown?
Custom House station, about 0.7 miles north of the centre.
Could you cook in Thames Barrier Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is it pay as you go?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We’ll agree what suits yours.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
