The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
You won’t have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Bowes Park
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Greek Orthodox Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Could you cook in Woodside Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you do evening food?
Of course. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
It works well as a relaxed main meal, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What happens on the day
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. At a December wedding in Bowes Park, 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 9:20pm.

- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
