Wedding hog roast in Clifton, slow-roasted on site

For a relaxed wedding in Clifton, a hog roast hits the right note: generous, hearty food carved in front of your guests. Our staff serve and clear, so the day runs smoothly. For wedding breakfasts with sides and home weddings, we can cook rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and carved roast pork.

There is something special about a country wedding near Clifton, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
  • Collect dietary needs with RSVPs

We are on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.

For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.

Space, access and the venue

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:

  • Space well clear of tents and trees
  • Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
  • A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Read the checklist

Full catering or machine hire?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Clifton questions

How far is Clifton from London?

About 61 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Which station is closest to Clifton?

The closest is Kings Sutton station, roughly 2.7 miles away.

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.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?

It works well as a relaxed main meal, with lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside.

How do we prepare?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.

Do we need to provide electricity?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

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.

Why choose a hog roast in Clifton?

Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
  3. We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
