About our party hog roast in Foots Cray

- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A spot well away from the house
Foots Cray 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.

Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
FAQs for Foots Cray
Can you cater after a service at Parish Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Foots Cray Meadows?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do we need to wash up?
Yes, we clear up after service.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, because every party is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- Time on site
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
