Slow-roasted pork in Plashet
Step by step
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Sunset in Plashet is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:50pm in December, we need light to carve.
- 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 clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Name a contact for the day

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Add a dietary question to the invite
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Planning the cooking spot

- Parking close to the house
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- A word with the neighbours
As a London location, Plashet is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
