A hog roast near Russell Hill
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Party hog roast in Russell Hill, carved to order
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. Your guests will smell it from the street. For getting-engaged parties and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, apple sauce and jacket potatoes.
In Russell Hill, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. If there’s no side gate, tell us about rear access or a front garden. A picture helps. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Distance from us
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- Access to the cooking area
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Russell Hill questions
We are gathering after a service at St. Paul's: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Russell Hill?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do children like hog roasts?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist.

Where the roaster can go in Russell Hill
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- A heads-up for next door
Russell Hill 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.

See our prices page or the cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
We get there early to start the roast, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

The process
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. A summer party in Russell Hill stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- 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 tidy up and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
