Party hog roast in Palmers Green

Party hog roast near Palmers Green

Plan where the roaster will go: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will help you choose. We serve jacket potatoes, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage, and we are regularly asked to cater neighbourhood parties and big family get-togethers.

Most parties in Palmers Green are at home, and in London that means getting the roaster into the garden. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. Send us a photo. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Should I cook it myself?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

For event organisers in Palmers Green

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten

We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.

Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

Palmers Green: your questions answered

Could you cook in Broomfield Park?

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

What’s the nearest station to Palmers Green?

Palmers Green has its own station: Palmers Green station.

What space does the roaster need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.

Do you bring plates?

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

Is mains power needed?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Can you do gluten-free?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

When do you start roasting?

Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Where the roaster can go in Palmers Green

Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
  • Parking close to the house

Palmers Green 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How to compare hog roast caterers

What we serve, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.

Step by step

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. For an evening party in Palmers Green, think about light: 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.

  1. Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We cook for hours on site.
  4. We serve when you are ready.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
