How hog roast hire works in CR90
We provide a fully catered hog roast: roasting, carving and serving are all done for you. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. We’re often asked to cater work summer parties and gatherings after a funeral, with spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw.
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Prices in CR90
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Planning a hog roast in CR90
CR90 covers everything from Broad Green and Old Town to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Broad Green: For guests coming by train, the nearest station is West Croydon station, about 0.6 miles south. For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as Church of St Saviour, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby. Light matters for a long roast: around Broad Green, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue.

FAQs for CR90
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
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.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Is all of Greater London covered?
We cover Greater London and the rest of London and the South East. Send us the address for a quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is our garden big enough?
Often, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a picture.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
