Party hog roast in Highams Park

Party hog roast in Highams Park, carved to order

A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We will help you choose. We serve hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for wedding anniversaries and close and cul-de-sac parties.

Throwing a party in Highams Park? A hog roast means no cooking for you, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. A long roast means a word with the neighbours. Timings are planned around your party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. 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.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.

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

Highams Park: your questions answered

Could you cook in Lloyd Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Can you cater after a service at St John's?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

What about coeliacs?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Is there a non-pork option?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Can you work around our timings?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

Can we just hire the roaster?

We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.

What’s included?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Can you cater in Highams Park?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.

What affects the price in Highams Park

We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Time on site
  • The journey to the venue
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Whether you want china

A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Details that help

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Where the event is
  • Any venue rules
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Rough numbers

About the food

Crackling

The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.

Where the roaster can go in Highams Park

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

  • Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
  • Space for our vehicle near the drive
  • A step-free way into the garden

As a London location, Highams Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

How to compare hog roast caterers

The process

Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. For an evening party in Highams 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 us your party date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
  3. We arrive in good time and start roasting.
  4. When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Name a contact for the day
  • Send final numbers in good time

How to get a price

To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
