Questions from Lower Morden
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Lower Morden?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you cater after a service at St Martin's?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Will people get crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We’ll explain what’s included in each when we quote.

Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
Lower Morden 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 will tell you honestly.

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. Buffets can sit out for hours. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
