Wedding hog roast for North Camp
About our wedding hog roast in North Camp
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, then carve at the time you’ve set. Popular choices include crackling, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and we are frequently booked for anniversary vow renewals and post-wedding gatherings.
Weddings in a place like North Camp frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Let us know about access. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat.

North Camp questions
Is North Camp close to London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London.
Could you cook in Ramillies Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you cater in North Camp?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, North Camp and the rest of Hampshire included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Before you choose a spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Travel to North Camp
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In North Camp, 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. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.
How to prepare
