Wedding hog roast for Lower Arncott
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Wedding hog roast in Lower Arncott, slow-roasted on site
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We’re often asked to cater wedding breakfasts with sides and post-wedding gatherings, serving carved roast pork, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Lower Arncott, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Numbers
- Crockery choices
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
When you enquire, please mention:
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the wedding is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, for access and timings.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
