Wedding hog roast across Kent

A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue. We serve spit-roast lamb, salads and halloumi skewers, and we’re often booked for marquee receptions and barn and farm weddings.

Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away.

The closest station to Maidstone is Maidstone West station, about 0.6 miles north-west of the centre.

Weddings across Kent: venues and settings

Couples in Kent choose everything from venues in Maidstone, Ashford and Canterbury to marquees in village gardens. Hog roasts are especially at home at barn, marquee and garden weddings. Parts of Kent are within a few miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape and the High Weald National Landscape, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events. Around 219 places in Kent are close to the coast, so we frequently plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.

Maidstone: Wedding photographers in the area often head for Boxley Hills. Couples marrying at local churches such as St Philip's Church frequently hold the reception nearby, with the roast cooking through the ceremony. For a summer wedding in Maidstone, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.

About the food

Crackling

Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

For planners, venues and organisers

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Planning the cooking spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
A route to wheel equipment to the spot
Approval from the venue or marquee supplier

A hog roast compared with other options

Next to a cold buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time late at night.

Questions from Kent

How long does the roast need?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?

The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.

Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?

Quantities are based on your guest list, and we’ll confirm it in writing.

Can you do our evening wedding food?

Yes. We’ll time it around your first dance and band.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.

Do you serve the food?

You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

How much will it be?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
