About hog roast hire in SW19

A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that’s what you get when you book a hog roast in SW19. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. Typical bookings include wedding breakfasts and evening food and Fêtes, fairs and shows, with hog roast rolls, salads and spit-roast lamb.

A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Planning a hog roast in SW19

Across SW19, we cover 3 towns and 1 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Wimbledon, Putney and Colliers Wood or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.

Wimbledon: Coming by train? There is a station right in Wimbledon: Wimbledon station. PTAs at schools such as Wimbledon High School frequently look for a hot-food stall for fairs and sports days. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Wimbledon, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

The menu, dish by dish

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.

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.

What a hog roast costs

The biggest factors are:

  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Distance from us
  • How many people are eating

UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.

Details that help

To get the best quote, send us:

  • The address or postcode
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Roughly how many people
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot

A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:

  • Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A way to wheel the roaster to the spot

Working with your venue

Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Planning for dietary needs

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options

Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.

Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
