Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. Whether it is wedding breakfasts with sides and second-day get-togethers, we can cook rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and salads and more.
Near Newchapel, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
Do we need extra food?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Next to a wedding barbecue, a hog roast feeds everyone at once from one roast. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. For a summer wedding in Newchapel, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
