How our party hog roast works in New Charlton
Plan where the roaster will go: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We’ll help you choose. For reunions and getting-engaged parties, we can cook crackling, jacket potatoes and apple sauce for your guests.
Most parties in New Charlton 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. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Plates or china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- Roughly how many people
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Your menu choices
- Anything the venue has asked for
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in New Charlton
We are gathering after a service at St Catherine Labouré: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in New Charlton?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Can we cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we’ll tell you if it works.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Autumn parties in New Charlton get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Hire the machine or book catering? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger or more important parties. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
