About our wedding hog roast in Hedgerley Green
The carving station becomes a focal point: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. We’re often asked to cater garden weddings at home and marquee receptions, with rotisserie chicken, crackling and halloumi skewers.
Near Hedgerley Green, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Power for lights in the evening

Is Hedgerley Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Roughly 22 miles from the centre of London.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you do evening food?
Yes. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
What if our venue has its own caterer?

Can you roast in the rain?

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
You won’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, quoted separately.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
