How our wedding hog roast works in Bellingdon
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. Typical bookings include weddings in a marquee and evening receptions, serving halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb.
Near Bellingdon, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Where the roaster can go in Bellingdon
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed

Common questions in Bellingdon
We’re gathering after a service at St John's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Bellingdon?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Will our venue allow a hog roast?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll sort the details with them.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you cater in Bellingdon?
Yes, Bellingdon is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.

At a December wedding in Bellingdon, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
