What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Hog roast hire in Kingsland, carved to order
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We serve salads, crackling and new potatoes, and we are often booked for big birthdays and anniversaries and club events and presentations.
London gardens around Kingsland are often small and close to neighbours, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Why choose a hog roast in Kingsland?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Late September evenings in Kingsland lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- 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.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Where the roaster can go in Kingsland
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
Kingsland is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
