A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast without batches coming off a grill. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What you get with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Serving and clearing done for you
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. At a December wedding in Kentish Town, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
