Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Common questions in Palmers Green
We’re gathering after a service at Palmers Green United Reformed Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What if our house in Palmers Green has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Is it just pork?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Will people get crackling?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Do you come to Palmers Green?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Palmers Green and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Working with your venue
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
