Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
Hog roast hire in Wood Green, slow-roasted on site
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that’s what you get when you book a hog roast in Wood Green. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. We’re often asked to cater wakes and memorial gatherings and staff days and open days, with coleslaw, crackling and halloumi skewers.
Around Wood Green, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. Many terraced houses have no side access, so tell us whether there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use, and a photo helps us check. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Planning a hog roast in Wood Green
Wood Green is about 3 miles south-west of Edmonton, in Greater London. From village halls to gardens and fields, events around Wood Green suit a hog roast. Wood Green is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 7 miles away.
If you had Woodside Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park. If you are gathering after a service at a church like Church of St Michael and All Angels, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast.
We bring hog roasts to events all over N22 and N8. Your event could be at a house on Vincent Square, Station Road and Gathorne Road or the roads around them, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster.
