Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Let us know roughly how many children
We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a buffet, hot carved pork feels more special, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- We bring everything to cook and serve

Bromley Common questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Bromley Common?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Do you come to Bromley Common?
Yes, Bromley Common is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
