Wedding hog roast near Lamport
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. We’re often asked to cater weddings in a family garden and rustic barn receptions, with rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and halloumi skewers.
Rural weddings around Lamport have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

FAQs for Lamport
Is Lamport too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Could you cook in Stowe Park and Garden?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
It depends on the venue. Ask your venue early, and we’ll work with them on the details.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a cold buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

- Serving and clearing done for you
- Timed around your day
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
Take a look at our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
The process
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. At a December wedding in Lamport, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:30pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- 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.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.

Catered or do it yourself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
