Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
As a London location, Church End 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.

Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Light matters for a long roast: in Church End, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which typically keeps the cost down. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Common questions in Church End
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Church End?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Either: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- Site access
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
