Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.

What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Sunset in Beckenham is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is normally in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.

Common questions in Beckenham
We are gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
What if our house in Beckenham has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote.
Can we hire the hog roast machine for our party?
Yes, DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with cooking for everyone yourself, a catered hog roast gives you the day back. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- Season and day of the week
- Menu choices and extras
- The journey to the venue
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the event is
- Your date and serving time
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Within reach of Beckenham are historic houses such as Bromley Palace (2.1 miles east) and Kingswood House (2.8 miles north-west). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules.

We cover parties in every part of BR3, SE26, BR4 and SE20 and the streets around it. Local streets include High Street, The Drive and Stanmore Terrace; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Beckenham sits on or near the B230 and B251, which makes travel to your party easy.

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
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.
