Party hog roast in York Town, carved to order
A hog roast works for street parties as well, once the road closure or permission is in place. For big birthday parties and big family get-togethers, we can cook hog roast rolls, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
In a place like York Town, a party at home is usually the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll do the rest. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Add a dietary question to the invite
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
York Town: your questions answered
Could you cook in Tekels Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
How far is York Town from London?
About 31 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Is our garden suitable?
Most gardens can work, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a photo.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Is a hog roast right for your party?
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
