A hog roast near Leyton Grange

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Hog roast hire in Leyton Grange, slow-roasted on site

A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Leyton Grange: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Whether it’s corporate events and wakes, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken for your guests.

Gardens in Leyton Grange tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

Why choose a hog roast in Leyton Grange?

Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which typically keeps the cost down. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Why book with us

  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

How we price a hog roast

We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Crockery choices
  • Menu choices and extras
  • How many people are eating
  • Season and day of the week

Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

What we need to know

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • Rough numbers
  • The venue or postcode
  • Your date and serving time

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Use our quote form.

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled

Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.

About the food

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.

The process

When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Late September evenings in Leyton Grange lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:50pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Getting a price

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
