Your questions about a hog roast in Limmo Peninsula
Can you do a hog roast in Bow Creek Ecology Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Luke?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you cook it or do we?
Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Most people choose catering.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Is it just pork?
It’s built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
We cater across Greater London, including Limmo Peninsula. Ask for a quote.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Hog roast hire in Limmo Peninsula, slow-roasted on site
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We’re frequently asked to cater festive gatherings and birthdays and anniversaries, serving spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and crackling.
London gardens around Limmo Peninsula are frequently small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Step by step
Here’s how the day normally runs: 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. Light matters for a long roast: around Limmo Peninsula, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day

Planning for dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
We will agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book our hog roast in Limmo Peninsula
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Planned to your running order
Read our pricing and what a hog roast costs.
What affects the price in Limmo Peninsula
Things that change the price:
- Season and day of the week
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Travel to Limmo Peninsula
- How many people are eating
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
To get the best quote, send us:
- Your menu choices
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary requirements
- The venue or postcode
Send us the date, the address or E16 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

- Cover for your guests in bad weather
