Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and normally costs less per head. It still feels like a feast. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Space well clear of tents and trees
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Winter weddings in Margery are 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 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.

Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed

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.
