Slow-roasted pork in Alperton
Hog roast hire in Alperton, slow-roasted on site
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that’s hog roast hire in Alperton. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and you can add sides and other meats. We serve spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and school fairs and christmas parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Alperton, the big question is getting the roaster to the cooking spot. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and send us a picture. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What happens on the day
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Alperton until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.

Bringing a hog roast to Alperton
Alperton is about 2 miles north of Ealing, in Greater London. We’re happy to travel to Alperton for events. We cater all 764 towns and villages in Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Alperton to London (9 miles away).
Churches such as St James Church Alperton rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by normally does. A green space like St. Raphael's Edible Garden is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.
Wherever your event is in HA0, UB6 and NW10, we can roast on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Your event could be at a house on Lee Road, Marsh Road and Eagle Road or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster.

Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
As a London location, Alperton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
Name someone to meet us, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
