How to compare hog roast caterers

How our hog roast hire works in Stroud Green

Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, ready to carve when you are. We serve spit-roast lamb, salads and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater christmas fairs and wakes.

Gardens in Stroud Green tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

For event organisers in Stroud Green

If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Season and day of the week
  • Site access
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rough numbers
  • A photo of the cooking area
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: fill in our quote form.

Full catering or machine hire?

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

Looking after everyone

Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
  • Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed

We will agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.

Do you need power or water?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which typically keeps the cost down. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

What you get with us

  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Served at the time you choose
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.

How it works

From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Stroud Green, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We pack away and leave you to it.

How to prepare

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

What comes off the roaster

Spit-roast lamb

Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for guests who don’t eat pork.

Rotisserie chicken

For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
