Hog roast hire in DA15: what to expect
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. Typical bookings include gatherings after a funeral and parties at home, with salads, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb.
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
What you will pay
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Hog roast catering in DA15: local guide
From Eltham, Sidcup and Welling to 1 villages and hamlets, bookings across DA15 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Blackfen: If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. If you had Shoulder of Mutton Green in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. Planning an evening hog roast in Blackfen? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
How we price a hog roast
Things that change the price:
- Season and day of the week
- Crockery choices

What we need to know
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your date and serving time
- Your menu choices
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. Send us your details through our quote form.
What the cooking area needs
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
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.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Is a hog roast right for you?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who doesn’t eat it.
