How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In Alperton, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Timed around your day
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
Read our pricing or the cost guide.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, for access and timings.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.
FAQs for Alperton
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Alperton?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cater after a service at St James Church Alperton?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
Of course. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Do you cover Alperton?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Do we need extra food?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are generally enough.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
Where the roaster can go in Alperton
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
As a London location, Alperton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

For event organisers in Alperton
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
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.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
