A hog roast near Chesterton

Wedding hog roast in Chesterton, slow-roasted on site

Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. We’re often asked to cater vow renewals and blessings and late-night wedding food, serving spit-roast lamb, salads and crackling.

Rural weddings around Chesterton have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. 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

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

What a hog roast costs

We do not use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. What matters most:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The journey to the venue
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Whether you want china

Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

What to tell us

To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Roughly how many people

Every wedding is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your wedding for a quote: use our quote form.

  • Lighting for evening service

  • Step-free access for our equipment

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
