How our wedding hog roast works in Lyminster

Near Lyminster, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot.

Planners, venues and businesses
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.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What to tell us
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- Rough numbers
- A picture of the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode
Every wedding is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your wedding for a quote: use our quote form.

Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.

Questions from Lyminster
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you roast near the sea around Lyminster?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
