Hog roast hire for Brockley
Hog roast hire in Brockley, carved to order
People book a hog roast in Brockley for everything from birthdays to fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. For village fêtes and school fairs and parties at home, we can cook halloumi skewers, new potatoes and crackling for your guests.
Around Brockley, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. If there is no side passage, a rear gate, yard or communal space may work, and send us a photo. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

A hog roast or other catering?
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Why book with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Planned to your running order
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Fresh carving at the serving station

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it is carved the same way.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
As a London location, Brockley 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Coleslaw
- Rotisserie chicken
- Crackling
- Salads
- Stuffing
- Hog roast rolls
- Spit-roast lamb
- New potatoes
- Roast or jacket potatoes

The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Brockley, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How we price a hog roast
Here’s what affects the price:
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The date and time of year
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
