Hog roast hire in Lee, carved to order
There’s nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We cook at your venue in Lee, low and slow, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. On the menu are new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and we’re frequently booked for wedding breakfasts and evening food and christmas parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Lee, the big question is getting the roaster to the cooking spot. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and a picture helps us check. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Common questions in Lee
Can you do a hog roast in Manor House Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Lee?
Lee station, in Lee itself.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you serve the crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.

A hog roast compared with other options

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Lee, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
The roaster needs looking after for hours, and that is what we are there for. You can relax and enjoy the day.

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Where the roaster can go in Lee
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Parking near the spot
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
Lee 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.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
