A hog roast near Wyck
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Wyck questions
Is Wyck too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Wyck close to London?
Roughly 43 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Can it be more formal?
It can be dressed up, with plates or china.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Planning for dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Share the allergen information with the team
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- Access to the cooking area
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Rough numbers
When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
