Our hog roast service in Borehamwood
Borehamwood has been tied to film and television for about a century, with several studios in and around the town over the years and a long list of well-known productions made there. It's also a busy residential town right on London's edge, with the A1 and M25 close by and Thameslink trains to the city from Elstree & Borehamwood station, while Aldenham Country Park and open green belt land sit just to the north-west.
Our work here is mostly private and community events, with some corporate bookings from local businesses. We cook the pork, lamb or BBQ on site, carve to order and bring every salad, bread and sauce.
We cater across Borehamwood as part of our hog roast catering in Hertfordshire. For the full picture of how we work, see our our hog roast service page.
Where we cater in Borehamwood
Family gatherings dominate: birthdays, bar and bat mitzvah after-parties, christenings, garden parties and neighbourhood celebrations. The surrounding areas of Elstree, Radlett, Shenley and Bushey have larger gardens and space for marquees. Schools, sports clubs and community groups in the town add summer fairs and fundraising events.
Parking can be tight on residential streets near the town centre, and some estates have limited side access, so we'll check the route before the day. The more rural lanes towards Shenley and Radlett are easier for our vehicle.

Birthday party catering · Hog roasts for private partiesWhat we cook
Pork hog roast
The classic. A whole pig roasts slowly for hours until the meat is tender and the skin has turned to crackling, then we carve it to order — into soft rolls with stuffing and apple sauce, or onto plates with salads and potatoes.
Sample hog roast menuLamb roast
Lamb works as the only roast or alongside pork. We carve it at the counter and serve it with mint sauce, herby salads and breads — a popular choice for summer weddings.
A whole lamb roastBBQ options
Beef burgers, pork sausages, marinated and BBQ-glazed chicken, veggie burgers, halloumi and plant-based sausages — pick three or four and we'll handle the rest.
BBQ packagesSides & salads
A roast without good sides is just meat in a bun. We make coleslaw and salads fresh, cook fries and sweet potato fries on site, and can add new potatoes, corn on the cob or a Greek-style salad depending on the season and the crowd.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Most Borehamwood events have guests who don't eat pork, and many have vegetarians, vegans and people with allergies. We cook meat-free dishes separately when asked, label every dish, and can build a pork-free menu around lamb or the BBQ. Our allergen information explains what we can and can't guarantee.
