Catered or do it yourself?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Summer events in Willesden have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- 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 tidy the pitch.
How to prepare
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Willesden
What’s the nearest station to Willesden?
Kensal Rise station, about 1.1 miles south-east of the centre.
Could you cook in Roundwood Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What about visitors who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you cater in Willesden?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Willesden and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
How we price a hog roast for your event
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Whether you want china
- Travel to Willesden
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, please mention:
- Allergies we should know about
- Your date and serving time
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The address or postcode
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Halal is not offered
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
Add coleslaw.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A queuing area
- Your trader requirements
- A safe distance from other traders
As a London location, Willesden is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
