Step by step
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Evenings in Rayners Lane 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.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

About our hog roast hire in Rayners Lane
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We serve new potatoes, salads and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater christmas parties and work summer parties.
London gardens around Rayners Lane are often small and close to neighbours, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Remember that 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 us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Do we need to provide electricity?

The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
