About our party hog roast in Underhill
For a relaxed party, you can hire the machine and cook it yourself. Most hosts prefer us to do it, and spend time with their guests. Popular choices include crackling, apple sauce and jacket potatoes, and we’re often booked for getting-engaged parties and milestone birthdays.
In Underhill, a party at home is the usual choice, and access is the question. With no side passage, a rear gate or front garden may work. Send us a photo. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Underhill: your questions answered
What if our house in Underhill has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Could you cook in Highlands Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
What about the neighbours?
Let them know in advance.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- The number of people
- Menu choices and extras
- How long the roast and service take
- Season and day of the week
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, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, please mention:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- An estimate of numbers
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.

Underhill parties: what to know
Underhill is about 1 mile west of Barnet, in Greater London. We cater parties at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Underhill and the surrounding area. We cover 764 places in Greater London. Our bookings stretch from Underhill to London (about 11 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Wyllyotts Manor (3.4 miles north). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. If the day starts at St John the Baptist Church, the roast can be ready when everyone gets back.
We bring hog roasts to parties all over the EN5 and N20 postcode area and the streets around it. That could mean a party in a garden on Park Road, May's Lane and Manor Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. If your venue is just outside Underhill, we also cover Barnet (1 mile east), New Barnet (1 mile east), Monken Hadley (1 mile north), Hadley Wood (1 mile north-east) and Cockfosters (2 miles east). Larger places within reach include London (11 miles south-east), City of Westminster (9 miles south), Marylebone (9 miles south), Kensington (10 miles south), St Pancras (9 miles south) and Shoreditch (10 miles south-east).
Nearby you will also find Barnet General Hospital (0.9 miles west) and Francis Skaryna Belarusian Library and Museum (2.2 miles south). Green spaces nearby include Greenhill Gardens and Darland's Lake.
- Local schools include Queen Elizabeth's Girls' School (less than half a mile north) and Susi Earnshaw Theatre School (0.5 miles north-west)
- Nearby, you will find The Red Lion pub (under half a mile north)
- Other local spots include Barnet Urban District (under half a mile north-west)
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We set up in the agreed spot, so the party carries on around us.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, quoted separately.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
As a London location, Underhill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Catered or do it yourself?
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.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Autumn parties in Underhill get dark early: about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- We leave the garden tidy.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
