Wedding hog roast in Oakleigh Park, 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. For second-day get-togethers and the main wedding meal, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and salads and more.
In Oakleigh Park, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we will agree the details with them. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
Oakleigh Park 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.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. At a December wedding in Oakleigh Park, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
FAQs for Oakleigh Park

We are gathering after a service at Church of St John: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
