Party hog roast near Crofton Park

Plan where the roaster will go: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will help you choose. On the menu are a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and hog roast rolls, and we are often booked for getting-engaged parties and family reunions.

Throwing a party in Crofton Park? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, at home or a hall with a garden. Warn the neighbours: it roasts for hours. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed

If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.

Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.

Full catering or machine hire?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Space, access and the venue

We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:

  • A level patio, lawn or driveway
  • A heads-up for next door
  • A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains

Crofton Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

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

A closer look at the menu

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.

Crackling

For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.

Is a hog roast right for your party?

Compared with a buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Why Crofton Park hosts choose us

  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • No surprises: everything in writing

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

The process

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your party. For an evening party in Crofton Park, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

  1. Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We cook for hours on site.
  4. Our staff serve rolls and sides.
  5. We clear up so you don’t have to.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Crofton Park

We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Hilda: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

What if our house in Crofton Park has no side access?

Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Should we warn the neighbours?

It’s worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.

What if it rains?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Is there a non-pork option?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
