Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A heads-up for next door
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
Elm Park 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.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Sunset in Elm Park is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:50pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
How to prepare

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
