How our wedding hog roast works in New Southgate
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. For late-night wedding food and the day after the wedding, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, carved roast pork and halloumi skewers and more.

For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

FAQs for New Southgate
Can you do a hog roast in O. R. Tambo Recreation Ground?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in New Southgate?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Some couples have a formal meal and a hog roast in the evening; others have the hog roast as the main event. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?

- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
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.

What happens on the day
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. In New Southgate, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
