In Harmondsworth, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we will work through it together. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for guests who don’t eat pork.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

Should I cook it myself?
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.
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.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Harmondsworth
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if our house in Harmondsworth has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Do you do evening food?
It is one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do we need extra food?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Working with your venue
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

The process
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Evening food at a Harmondsworth wedding frequently 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.
- Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
