Slow-roasted pork in Kingsland

How our wedding hog roast works in Kingsland

Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, then carve at the time you’ve set. Popular choices include crackling, salads and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for weddings in a marquee and vow renewals and blessings.

In Kingsland, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we will work through it together. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Full catering or machine hire?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

The menu, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children usually like it too.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.

Planners, venues and businesses

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

We work out each quote from:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Season and day of the week
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • How many people are eating

Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • What the outdoor space is like
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Anything the venue has asked for

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.

Step by step

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Kingsland, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  3. Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.

Preparing for the day

  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Send final numbers in good time

Planning help

Where the roaster can go in Kingsland

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:

  • Step-free access for our equipment
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A short walk from the serving station to the guests

As a London location, Kingsland is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

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

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
  • Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten
  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
  • Give your coordinator the final menu

We’re on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.

For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
