Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Give final numbers in good time
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
A hog roast compared with other options
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Common questions in Bury's Bank
Could you cook in New Greenham Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, and our staff serve your guests.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
