Wedding hog roast in Carshalton, slow-roasted on site

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. For a summer wedding in Carshalton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

Carshalton questions
What if our house in Carshalton has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come to Carshalton?
Yes, Carshalton is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Check with them first, and we will liaise with them.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Evening food usually goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
