Wedding hog roast in Little Heath, carved to order

Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. For vow renewals and blessings and farm weddings, we can cook carved roast pork, halloumi skewers and crackling for your guests.

Weddings in a place like Little Heath often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
  • Share the menu with your venue coordinator
  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
  • Give final numbers in good time

You won’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.

Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. What matters most:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Travel to Little Heath
  • How long the roast and service take
  • How many people are eating

Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

What we need to know

Here’s what we will ask:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Your menu choices
  • A photo of the cooking area
  • Any venue rules

DIY versus a catered hog roast

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.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

A hog roast or other catering?

Next to a cold buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why book with us

  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • An itemised quote
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Timed around your day

Little Heath questions

We are gathering after a service at St Catherine of Siena: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

Could you cook in Calcot Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

What comes with the hog roast?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

What should we sort out beforehand?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.

Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?

Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.

Do you do evening food?

Yes, evening food is very popular. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.

Can you do gluten-free?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Planners, venues and businesses

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

What comes off the roaster

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How the day works

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Winter weddings in Little Heath 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 9:25pm.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. We cook through the day and serve right on cue.
  5. We clear away once everyone has eaten.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Give us a contact number for the day
