Anywhere in SE4, SE15 and SE14, we can roast on site for your visitors. That could mean an event in a garden on Mona Road, Pepys Road and Kitto Road or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster.

Should I cook it myself?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
