A hog roast across UB1: what to know
Across UB1, we cover 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Southall, Greenford and Yeading to a quiet hamlet: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.
Dormers Wells: For guests coming by train, the closest railway station is Southall station, roughly 0.9 miles south-west of the centre. If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Dormers Wells Junior School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Dormers Wells, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
How we price a hog roast
Each price is built from:
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
These are the details we need:
- Your date and serving time
- Any venue rules
- An estimate of numbers
- Your menu choices
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.
Is a hog roast right for you?
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves plenty of people from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook.
