Planning a hog roast in DA7
Across DA7, we cover 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Erith, Northumberland Heath and Lessness Heath to a quiet hamlet: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.
Bexleyheath: If you had Danson Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. Within reach of Bexleyheath are historic houses such as Red House (less than half a mile south-west) and Danson House (0.9 miles west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before booking. By late September, sunset in Bexleyheath is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:50pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
How we price a hog roast
The price comes down to:
- Crockery choices
- Travel to DA7
- Numbers
- Time on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon.

Often, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A photo helps us check.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
