About our hog roast hire in Oakwood
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Oakwood, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. For garden parties and barbecues and christmas parties, we can cook rotisserie chicken, coleslaw and hog roast rolls and more.
In Oakwood, the roaster might go in a garden, a church car park or a works yard. Tell us how we get the equipment in. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Planning an evening hog roast in Oakwood? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.
- First, you send us your date, address, 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.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Ask for a quote
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Where the roaster can go in Oakwood
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
Oakwood is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Your questions about a hog roast in Oakwood
What’s the nearest station to Oakwood?
The closest is Winchmore Hill station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast in Oakwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Do we need a big space?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How we price a hog roast
Each price is built from:
