A hog roast near Peaks Hill
Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Hog roast hire for your event in Peaks Hill
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. We are frequently asked to cater wakes and Fêtes, fairs and shows, with spit-roast lamb, salads and hog roast rolls.
Around Peaks Hill, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and send us a picture. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.
How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Evenings in Peaks Hill stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which normally keeps the cost down. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
