Your questions about a hog roast in Brixton
Which station is closest to Brixton?
Brixton station, in Brixton itself.
We are gathering after a service at Trinity Congregational Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We’ll explain what’s included in each when we quote.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote.
How we price a hog roast
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Where the event is
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Use our quote form.

For event organisers in Brixton
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Brixton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
