Hog roast hire across IG3
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in IG3: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. We are often asked to cater clubhouse events and garden parties and barbecues, serving new potatoes, hog roast rolls and coleslaw.
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves.
- First, tell us 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.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Near you in Seven Kings
We set up the roaster for events around Downshall Primary School, Palmer Catholic Academy and South Park. Seven Kings has its own railway station: Seven Kings station. Other landmarks nearby include Waltham Holy Cross Urban District (2.2 miles north) and Goodmayes Hospital (0.8 miles north-east). Open spaces near Seven Kings include Hainault Lodge and Hollow Pond.
Hog roast hire across IG3
There are 3 towns and 1 villages and hamlets in IG3, so whether your event is in Ilford, Loxford and Newbury Park or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.
Seven Kings: School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Downshall Primary School, can book a hog roast stall. If guests are travelling by rail, Seven Kings has its own station, Seven Kings station. Around midsummer it stays light in Seven Kings until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A hog roast compared with other options
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who does not eat it.
Questions to ask before booking
- The full menu and the sides
- Plates, china and cutlery
- Payment terms and cancellation policy
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- How long the roast and service take
- The number of people
- Travel to IG3
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Roughly how many people
- Where the event is
- A picture of the cooking area
Send us the date, the address or IG3 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
IG3 questions
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Both are available: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Most people choose catering.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What meats can we have?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
Do you serve the crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
