Organising for someone else?
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

West Hampstead questions
Can you do a hog roast in Kilburn Grange Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
What’s the nearest station to West Hampstead?
West Hampstead has its own station: Finchley Road & Frognal station.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll sort the details with them.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
