The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. For an evening party in Dagenham Dock, think about light: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.

What else we do in Dagenham Dock
Dagenham Dock: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Parsloes Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Which station is closest to Dagenham Dock?
The closest is Dagenham Dock station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We cover the cooking area, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Most gardens can work, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
How we price a hog roast for your party
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, send us:
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- What the outdoor space is like
Send us the date, the address or RM9 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Think about children’s portions
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.

- Cooked on the day, low and slow
