Wedding hog roast in North End, slow-roasted on site

A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. Typical bookings include wedding breakfasts and vow renewals and blessings, with salads, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb.

Couples in North End frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

North End questions

What if our house in North End has no side access?

Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can you do a hog roast in Braeburn Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

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 will confirm the space with your quote.

Can you cater in North End?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, North End and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.

What if things run late?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.

Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?

It works well as a relaxed main meal, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.

Can we have both pork and lamb?

Lamb and chicken are both available alongside the hog.

Will guests be full?

With sides, it is a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.

The process

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Evening food at a North End wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Space, access and the venue

Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:

  • Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
  • A route to wheel equipment to the spot
  • Power for lights in the evening

North End is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and usually costs less per head. It still feels special. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What you get with us

  • Timed around your day
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Read how we price and the cost guide.

For planners, venues and organisers

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Our full booking checklist

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

Your quote depends on:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • The number of people
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quick, accurate price, send us:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Your menu choices
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish

Spit-roast lamb

With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
