How hog roast hire works in W5

In W5, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for work summer parties and weddings and receptions.

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. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Cost

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Hog roast catering in W5: local guide

W5 covers everything from Ealing, Brentford and Northfields to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.

Ealing: Thinking of a hog roast in Walpole Park? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, typically the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. For a fundraiser at a school like Ealing Independent College, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. Late September evenings in Ealing lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

Should I cook it myself?

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Whether you want china
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Site access

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Rough numbers
  • Your date and serving time
  • Dietary requirements

For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or W5 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.

A hog roast compared with other options

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

What your quote should include

  • What the price includes, item by item
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Plates, china and cutlery
  • How many staff will carve and serve

Occasions we serve in W5

There is very little for you to organise: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. Everything else comes with us.

Our roaster has been booked for all sorts of events around W5, such as:

  • Garden parties and barbecues
  • Birthdays and anniversaries
  • Wedding breakfasts and evening food
  • Club events and presentations

For planners, venues and organisers

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

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.

W5 questions

Can you do gluten-free?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Do you provide china?

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.

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.

What’s the price?

Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your event for a quote.

What should we sort out beforehand?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.

How soon do you get booked up?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.

Can we just hire the roaster?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

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