Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

What else we do in Totteridge
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level pitch
- Permission for cooking on the site
- A safe distance from other traders
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we serve
- Coleslaw
- Crackling
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Rotisserie chicken

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
We get to the pitch early, timed for the gates opening.

For event organisers in Totteridge
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to cold food, hot food is popular in any season. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book our hog roast in Totteridge

- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Getting ready for the day

- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
