How our party hog roast works in The Burroughs
For a christening or naming day in The Burroughs, a hog roast in the garden feeds the whole family, without anyone stuck cooking. Typical bookings include neighbourhood parties and reunions, serving a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and coleslaw.
Planning a London party in The Burroughs? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. Warn the neighbours: it roasts for hours.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a buffet, hot carved pork feels more special. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book our hog roast in The Burroughs
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Served at the time you choose
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Let us know roughly how many children
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, so the party carries on around us.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. For an evening party in The Burroughs, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear up and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in The Burroughs
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if our house in The Burroughs has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will tell you if it works.
Do we need to wash up?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there is very little washing up.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
