About our wedding hog roast in Keeper's Corner
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so on the day everything is in place. We serve new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and carved roast pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater the main wedding meal and marquee receptions.
A wedding in a small place like Keeper's Corner often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
The process
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Winter weddings in Keeper's Corner are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give final numbers in good time
For evening food, we carve as the dancing gets going, timed with you in advance.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a wedding barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
