Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a barbecue, you’re not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is ready for everyone at once. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

  • An itemised quote
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

What comes off the roaster

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.

Planning the cooking spot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • Parking close to the house

Bopeep 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.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Working with your venue

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

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.

The process

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. A summer party in Bopeep stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check the space and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
  4. We carve and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.

Before we arrive

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
