Hog roast hire in De Beauvoir Town
Catered or do it yourself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How our hog roast hire works in De Beauvoir Town
In De Beauvoir Town, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: a single slow roast, carved to order. Everything comes with us, and our staff serve and clear. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb, and we are frequently booked for christmas fairs and clubhouse events.
London gardens around De Beauvoir Town are often 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. 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.

- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which often makes it better value. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
