How our wedding hog roast works in Cricklewood
We look after guests who don’t eat pork: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater weddings in a family garden and anniversary vow renewals.
Couples in Cricklewood often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, so check with the venue early. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

The biggest factors are:

Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

How it works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Winter weddings in Cricklewood are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
Getting a price

Planning help
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Some couples add lights around the serving area.
Where the roaster can go in Cricklewood
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Step-free access for our equipment
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
Cricklewood is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
