How our wedding hog roast works in East Claydon
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We serve new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for anniversary vow renewals and evening food after the first dance.
A wedding in a small place like East Claydon frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Rough numbers
- The address or postcode
It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Use our quote form.
The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At midsummer, sunset in East Claydon is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Preparing for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in East Claydon
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
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. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?

What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Light near the carving station after dark
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Spit-roast lamb

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
