About our wedding hog roast in Brimsdown
The carving station becomes a focal point: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It’s food and a bit of theatre. We serve rotisserie chicken, crackling and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for garden weddings at home and marquee weddings.
Couples in Brimsdown often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, so check with the venue early. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
