Hog roast hire for Wandsworth
About our hog roast hire in Wandsworth
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. 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. Whether it is wakes and club events and presentations, we can cook spit-roast lamb, salads and halloumi skewers for your guests.
In a London neighbourhood like Wandsworth, 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 a photo helps us check. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Should I cook it myself?
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.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
Wandsworth is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The menu, dish by dish

Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
