Wedding hog roast in Lower Froyle, slow-roasted on site
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It’s food and a bit of theatre. Popular choices include crackling, halloumi skewers and salads, and we’re frequently booked for anniversary vow renewals and weddings in a family garden.
A wedding in a small place like Lower Froyle frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
We will liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
What affects the price in Lower Froyle
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. For a summer wedding in Lower Froyle, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
