Wedding hog roast for Belmont
Belmont: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Howell Hill?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How our wedding hog roast works in Belmont
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. We serve spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and crackling, and we’re regularly asked to cater evening receptions and marquee receptions.
A farm or garden wedding near Belmont suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.

What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Winter weddings in Belmont are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Preparing for the day

- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
