How our party hog roast works in Peckham Bush
For a relaxed party, you can hire the machine and cook it yourself. Most people choose the catered option, so they can enjoy the party. We’re often asked to cater close and cul-de-sac parties and engagement celebrations, serving rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and jacket potatoes.
In a small place like Peckham Bush, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A heads-up for next door
- Somewhere for us to park nearby

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Request gluten-free rolls
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. For an evening party in Peckham Bush, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:00pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
