Party hog roast near Plaistow
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will check it with you. Typical bookings include christenings and milestone birthdays, serving jacket potatoes, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
A country party near Plaistow is perfect for a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Common questions in Plaistow
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
How far is Plaistow from London?
About 36 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area, so there’s very little washing up.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
