Wedding hog roast for Aperfield

About our wedding hog roast in Aperfield

A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: it can be held for a while once cooked, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We serve rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater evening receptions and marquee weddings.

For a wedding in Aperfield, the venue’s rules decide where a hog roast can go. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we’ll agree the details with them. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten

On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.

Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

Aperfield questions

Can you cater after a service at St Mark's Church?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

What if our house in Aperfield has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

How soon do you get booked up?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.

Do you need power or water?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Will there be enough to go round?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?

Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.

Can we add a second roast?

Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.

Do you serve the food?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

For planners, venues and organisers

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

How it works

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Evening food at a Aperfield wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

  1. Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
  4. We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. We serve, tidy up and slip away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Planning help

What the cooking area needs

It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:

  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Lighting for evening service

Aperfield is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What affects the price in Aperfield

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Travel to Aperfield
  • How many people are eating
  • The date and time of year

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:

  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Rough numbers
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
