Wedding hog roast for Grayshott
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- The address or postcode

About our wedding hog roast in Grayshott
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: it can be held for a while once cooked, so the food copes with a delayed running order. For evening receptions and barn and farm weddings, we will put together a menu of carved roast pork, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken for your guests.
A farm or garden wedding near Grayshott suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
FAQs for Grayshott
How far is Grayshott from London?
About 39 miles from central London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Luke: can you cater?
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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
Do you do evening food?
Yes. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
Will our venue allow a hog roast?
It depends on the venue. Check with them first, and we’ll work with them on the details.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
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.

What else we do in Grayshott
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. In Grayshott, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Name a contact for the day
Getting a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your wedding for a quote: fill in our quote form.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
Roast pork

- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
