Hog roast hire in Pitshanger, carved to order
In Pitshanger, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. For club events and presentations and corporate events, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, halloumi skewers and coleslaw for your guests.
Gardens in Pitshanger tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, 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. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Catered or DIY? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is generally the easier choice. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What you get with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Carved to order by a chef
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
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.
Before you choose a spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Parking near the spot
As a London location, Pitshanger is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

FAQs for Pitshanger
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Barnabas?
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.
Could you cook in Castle Bar Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do we need a big space?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Do you come to Pitshanger?
Yes, Pitshanger is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
Greater London is part of our area. Contact us for a price.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
