For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Rise Park
Can you do a hog roast in Raphael Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to Rise Park?
The closest is Gidea Park station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
What about kids?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
It is worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Prices and what affects them
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area

Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
