Wedding hog roast for Brockley
Wedding hog roast in Brockley, carved to order
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It is food and a bit of theatre. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, salads and crackling, and typical bookings are for marquee weddings and garden weddings at home.
Couples in Brockley often 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. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: 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. At midsummer, sunset in Brockley is about 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Let us know about tight access

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A way in for the roaster
- A serving area close to where guests eat

FAQs for Brockley
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Hilda: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Blythe Hill Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
It is one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Ask your venue early, and we’ll liaise with them.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
Is crockery included?
