Wedding hog roast near Goddards Green

For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. Popular choices include crackling, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for barn and farm weddings and wedding breakfasts.

There’s something special about a country wedding near Goddards Green, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

How it works

On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. At a December wedding in Goddards Green, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

How to prepare

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Organising for someone else?

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

What affects the price in Goddards Green

We work out each quote from:

  • Plates or china
  • Access to the cooking area
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • The date and time of year

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • A photo of the cooking area
  • Roughly how many people
  • Your date and serving time
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.

Catered or do it yourself?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

What comes off the roaster

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.

Rotisserie chicken

For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
