How our hog roast hire works in West Ham

Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. Whether it is Fêtes, fairs and shows and club events and presentations, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and hog roast rolls for your guests.

In West Ham, the roaster might go in a garden, a church car park or a works yard. Let us know about the route in, including steps, narrow gates and parking for our vehicle. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option

Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.

China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

Why West Ham hosts choose us

  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow

Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.

What the cooking area needs

We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:

  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan

As a London location, West Ham is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How it works

Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. By late September, sunset in West Ham is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
  4. We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Planning help

Should I cook it myself?

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

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.

What we serve, dish by dish

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

Your questions about a hog roast in West Ham

Could you cook in West Ham Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Which station is closest to West Ham?

West Ham station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre.

Do you provide china?

Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.

What meats can we have?

It’s built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.

What’s included?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?

Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we’ll tell you honestly.

How much will it be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.

What affects the price in West Ham

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Whether you want china
  • Time on site
  • How easy it is to reach the spot

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What to tell us

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:

  • Rough numbers
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Where the event is
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

Send us the date, the address or E15 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
