A hog roast near Canons Park

Canons Park: your questions answered

What if our house in Canons Park has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can you cater after a service at Church of St Lawrence?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Do you leave the area tidy?

Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.

What is hog roast hire?

We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.

What do people get?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Do we need to provide electricity?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.

What should we sort out beforehand?

Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

For event organisers in Canons Park

If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

A hog roast or other catering?

Catered or DIY? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests

What comes off the roaster

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Plates or china
  • Travel to Canons Park

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and time of the event
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

What happens on the day

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. By late September, sunset in Canons Park is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Gather dietary requirements early

Planning help

Planning for dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them

We will agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.

China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
