Our hog roast hire in CR0
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. On the menu are salads, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and we’re frequently booked for wakes and christmas fairs.
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
What you will pay
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Carved to order by a chef

Hog roast catering in CR0: local guide
CR0 covers everything from London, Croydon and Broad Green to 3 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.
London: Historic houses near London include Mansion House (1 mile north) and Dr Johnson's House (1.2 miles north-west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before booking. Thinking of a hog roast in Newington Gardens? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, usually the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. By late September, sunset in London is around 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
Occasions we serve in CR0
There’s very little for you to organise: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. We bring the rest.

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
