Wedding hog roast in Bayworth, slow-roasted on site
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. Typical bookings include marquee weddings and small, informal weddings, with carved roast pork, salads and rotisserie chicken.
Near Bayworth, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours.

Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. In Bayworth, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The number of people
- Time on site
- Distance from us
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
