Hog roast hire for your event in Heston
There’s nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We roast slowly on site in Heston, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. For sports clubs and societies and christmas parties, we can cook coleslaw, crackling and salads for your guests.
Around Heston, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. If there’s no side passage, a rear gate, yard or communal space may work, and a photo helps us check. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls.

Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What else we do in Heston
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. In Heston, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is generally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Name a contact for the day
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.

Heston questions
We’re gathering after a service at St Leonard's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you do a hog roast in Inwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
Greater London is part of our area, including Heston. Contact us for a price.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
A hog roast or other catering?
Catered or DIY? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is usually the easier choice. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
