Wedding hog roast in Bexley, carved to order
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Bexley suit a hog roast. We cook outside, under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. We serve salads, crackling and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for relaxed, low-key weddings and home weddings.
Couples in Bexley frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, so check with the venue early. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Common questions in Bexley
Can you do a hog roast in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Bexley?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
It depends on the venue. Check with them first, and we’ll work with them on the details.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
Of course. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Can we offer lamb too?
Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.
Why choose a hog roast in Bexley?
If your venue does its own catering, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. Some venues charge a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
There’s no fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any venue rules
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We will liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Some couples add lights around the serving area; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
