Slow-roasted pork in Bellingham

About our wedding hog roast in Bellingham

For a relaxed wedding in Bellingham, a hog roast hits the right note: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. Our staff serve and clear, so you can enjoy it. For evening receptions and second-day get-togethers, we will put together a menu of carved roast pork, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.

Couples in Bellingham frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Share the menu with your venue coordinator
  • Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before

We will liaise with your venue coordinator, for access and timings.

Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos; tell your venue or marquee supplier.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

The menu, dish by dish

Roast pork

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

Stuffing and apple sauce

No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.

For event organisers in Bellingham

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Bellingham

We are gathering after a service at St Dunstan: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Could you cook in Forster Memorial Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

Can we offer lamb too?

Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.

Can we just hire the roaster?

DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

Do you come to Bellingham?

Yes, Bellingham is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.

Do you clear up?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

How it works

People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Bellingham, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: 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. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  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

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Space, access and the venue

It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:

  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
  • Approval from the venue or marquee supplier

Bellingham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
