Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Winter weddings in Beltinge are dark by about 3:50pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

It’s worth telling train travellers that Herne Bay station, about 1.9 miles west, is the nearest station. If you are hoping for photos in Bishopstone Cliffs, check whether the park needs permission for photography or gatherings. With the coast within about 2 miles, many venues here have sea views. We will think about shelter from sea breezes.
Weddings anywhere in CT6 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and roughly how many guests. Streets in the area include Manor Road, Puffin Road and Cliff Avenue, and a wedding on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Permission for outside catering
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
