Slow-roasted pork in Chingford Mount
Wedding hog roast near Chingford Mount
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat isn’t available. For anniversary vow renewals and wedding breakfasts with sides, we can cook crackling, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken and more.
Couples in Chingford Mount frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For a summer wedding in Chingford Mount, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Tell us whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.

- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.

Preparing for the day

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Common questions in Chingford Mount
What if our house in Chingford Mount has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in The Highams Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you come to Chingford Mount?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Chingford Mount and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others have the hog roast as the main event. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Full catering or machine hire?
