What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- Plates or china
- Distance from us
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How our hog roast hire works in Queen's Park
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Typical bookings include christmas parties and weddings and receptions, serving crackling, new potatoes and coleslaw.
In a London neighbourhood like Queen's Park, the big question is getting the roaster to the cooking spot. 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 photo. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Why choose a hog roast in Queen's Park?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.
Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

How the day works
Here’s how the day generally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. By late September, sunset in Queen's Park is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Queen's Park questions
Could you cook in Queen’s Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you cater after a service at West Kilburn Baptist Church?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Often, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A photo helps us check.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
