Slow-roasted pork in Forty Hill
Forty Hill: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at Jesus Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Forty Hill?
Turkey Street station, about 1 mile north-east of the centre.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you come to Forty Hill?
Yes, Forty Hill is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Hog roast hire for your event in Forty Hill

Around Forty Hill, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and a picture helps us check. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Perfect for your event in Forty Hill
Slow roasting cannot be faked: tender pork and proper crackling, carved fresh for every roll.
A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions. Here are some of the most popular:
- Work summer parties
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
- Fêtes, fairs and shows
- Clubhouse events
Within reach of Forty Hill are historic houses such as Forty Hall (under half a mile north) and Bruce Castle (4.6 miles south). Historic venues often limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one.
Questions to ask before booking
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- The space, cover and access they need
- Plates, china and cutlery
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
The roaster needs looking after for hours, and that is what we’re there for. You can get on with your event.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
