Wedding hog roast in Earl's Court
The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Evening food at a Earl's Court wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

Wedding hog roast in Earl's Court, slow-roasted on site
We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access well before the day, so nothing is left to chance. Typical bookings include marquee receptions and blessings and renewals, with rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes.
London weddings around Earl's Court frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Earl's Court: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at St Cuthbert's?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you do a hog roast in Gwendwr Garden?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can we offer lamb too?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken as a second option.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
Yes. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

Should I cook it myself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
