Slow-roasted pork in Avery Hill
About our hog roast hire in Avery Hill
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that is hog roast hire in Avery Hill. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, with sides and extras to choose from. We are frequently asked to cater sports clubs and societies and wedding breakfasts and evening food, serving salads, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
London gardens around Avery Hill are frequently small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
Avery Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Common questions in Avery Hill
What if our house in Avery Hill has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Which station is closest to Avery Hill?
The closest is Falconwood station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a picture.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Access to the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Plates or china
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What to tell us
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Dietary requirements
- Your date and serving time
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
What happens on the day
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evenings in Avery Hill stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
- We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
