Hog roast hire in West Bedfont, carved to order

On the menu are rotisserie chicken, coleslaw and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for christmas parties and sports clubs and societies.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How long the roast and service take
- Site access
- Season and day of the week

Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In West Bedfont, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
