Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Mitcham questions
Which station is closest to Mitcham?
Mitcham Eastfields station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in Cranmer Green?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
- Time on site
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your date and serving time
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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.
Before you choose a spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- A word with the neighbours
- A spot well away from the house
As a London location, Mitcham is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Evening parties in Mitcham need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

- We check the space and send a clear quote.

- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear up and pack away.
