A hog roast near St Pancras
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
How our hog roast for events works in St Pancras
Sports clubs, fun runs and tournaments suit a hog roast, served as people finish. On the menu are halloumi skewers, a vegan burger or sausage and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater agricultural and country shows and car shows and rallies.
In St Pancras, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces normally need council permission, and the roaster needs a pitch with clearance. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In December, St Pancras is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day

- Permission for cooking on the site
- Details of what the event requires
- A level pitch

What you get with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
