How our hog roast hire works in Fortune Green

The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We serve coleslaw, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for festive gatherings and parties at home.

London gardens around Fortune Green are frequently small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Looking after everyone

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option

Slow roasting needs attention, and that is what we’re there for. You can get on with your event.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.

FAQs for Fortune Green

What if our house in Fortune Green has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Could you cook in Kilburn Grange Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Do you cook it or do we?

Both are available: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Most people choose catering.

Do you come to Fortune Green?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.

How do we prepare?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.

What about guests who do not eat pork?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.

Do you serve the crackling?

Of course: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.

Why choose a hog roast in Fortune Green?

Next to a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. 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.

Why Fortune Green hosts choose us

  • Timed around your day
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

Take a look at how we price or the cost guide.

The menu, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing typically contains gluten.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

The process

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Fortune Green, 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.

  1. You share the when, where and how many.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Let us know about tight access

Planners, venues and businesses

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 you both updated.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Where the roaster can go in Fortune Green

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
  • A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
  • Any venue rules sorted in advance

As a London location, Fortune Green 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.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

What a hog roast costs

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • The number of people
  • Plates or china
  • The date and time of year

Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What to tell us

To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:

  • The address or postcode
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, fill in our quote form.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
