Slow-roasted pork in Grandpont

Wedding hog roast near Grandpont

A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. For farm weddings and late-night wedding food, we’ll put together a menu of halloumi skewers, salads and crackling.

For a smaller place like Grandpont, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need a level spot and access. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

Catered or do it yourself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Prices and what affects them

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Site access
  • Plates or china

Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Details that help

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Your menu choices
  • An estimate of numbers
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Where the event is

To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.

Why choose a hog roast in Grandpont?

Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and often better value. It still feels special. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why Grandpont hosts choose us

  • Served at the time you choose
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it

How to compare hog roast caterers

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
  • Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests

We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

Planners, venues and businesses

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Grandpont

Can you do a hog roast in Raleigh Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Is Grandpont close to London?

Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can we just hire the roaster?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

How soon do you get booked up?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.

Where will the roaster go at our wedding?

The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Step by step

Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At midsummer, sunset in Grandpont is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 9:00pm, and in late September about 7:10pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
  5. Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

How to prepare

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Give us a contact number for the day
