Hog roast catering in SE24: local guide
There are 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets in SE24, so whether your event is in Herne Hill, Camberwell and Loughborough Junction or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.
Herne Hill: Thinking of a hog roast in Belair Park? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, normally the council’s, and many parks do not allow it. For guests coming by train, North Dulwich station serves Herne Hill directly. In Herne Hill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
