A hog roast near Haslingbourne

How our wedding hog roast works in Haslingbourne

Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat. Typical bookings include marquee receptions and intimate weddings, with rotisserie chicken, salads and halloumi skewers.

There’s something special about a country wedding near Haslingbourne, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

What we serve, dish by dish

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.

Haslingbourne questions

Do you come out to small places like Haslingbourne?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Haslingbourne from London?

Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Is crockery included?

Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Will guests be full?

With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

What if our venue has its own caterer?

It depends on the venue. Ask your venue early, and we will liaise with them.

What a hog roast costs

The price comes down to:

  • Crockery choices
  • Distance from us
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • How long the roast and service take

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

What to tell us

To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:

  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
  • Your menu choices
  • Your date and serving time
  • Rough numbers

If you are comparing hog roast caterers for Haslingbourne, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, use our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
  • Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
  • Approval from the venue or marquee supplier

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

On the menu in Haslingbourne

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.

A hog roast compared with other options

Next to a wedding barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together without batches coming off a grill. The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why us?

  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • Planned to your running order

  2. We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
  3. We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
