Slow-roasted pork in Emerson Park
Party hog roast in Emerson Park, slow-roasted on site
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you can enjoy your own party. We’re often asked to cater christenings and naming days and big family get-togethers, with apple sauce, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
Most parties in Emerson Park are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. If there is no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. Send us a picture. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Catered or do it yourself?
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.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

What we serve, dish by dish
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.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Emerson Park, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:50pm in December, we need light to carve.

Planning help
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
- Add a dietary question to the invite
We set up in the agreed spot, so the party carries on around us.

Emerson Park questions
Which station is closest to Emerson Park?
The closest is Emerson Park station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Could you cook in Haynes Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
Emerson 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
