Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Cheam
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Andrew: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Could you cook in Howell Hill?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Do you come to Cheam?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Wedding hog roast in Cheam, slow-roasted on site
For a relaxed wedding in Cheam, a hog roast hits the right note: generous, hearty food carved in front of your guests. We serve and tidy up, so the day runs smoothly. We are frequently asked to cater vow renewals and blessings and small, informal weddings, with spit-roast lamb, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
In Cheam, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we will agree the details with them. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
Our staff serve and clear quietly, so the party carries on around us.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. For a summer wedding in Cheam, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is normally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
