What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.

Your questions about a hog roast in NW4
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
