How hog roast hire works in N14

Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it’s ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Typical bookings include christmas fairs and community events, serving crackling, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken.

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

Cost

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Hog roast catering in N14: local guide

Across N14, we cover 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Southgate, New Southgate and Arnos Grove or a quiet village, the approach is the same: level ground, access and agreed timings.

Southgate: Nearby historic houses include Bruce Castle (3.2 miles south-east) and Heath Hall (4 miles south-west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before you book. Churches such as Christ Church Southgate Parish Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by generally does. By late September, sunset in Southgate is around 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

Looking after everyone

You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:

  • Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled

We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.

Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.

Space, access and the venue

Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:

  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
  • Any venue rules sorted in advance

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.

Questions to ask before booking

  • VAT, if it applies
  • How many staff will carve and serve
  • How dietary needs are handled
  • Travel and any London charges

For event organisers in N14

For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

What comes off the roaster

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.

Questions from N14

How much room do you need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.

What about guests who do not eat pork?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.

Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?

Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we’ll advise.

Do you provide china?

Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.

How does hog roast hire work?

We roast on site, carve to order and serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
