Wedding hog roast near High Halstow
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so on the day everything is in place. Whether it is rustic barn receptions and evening receptions, we can cook rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and crackling for your guests.
Near High Halstow, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
For event organisers in High Halstow
If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Why choose a hog roast in High Halstow?
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together without batches coming off a grill. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Fresh carving at the serving station
