Wedding hog roast in Pinner
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. At a December wedding in Pinner, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Wedding hog roast in Pinner, carved to order
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. On the menu are new potatoes, carved roast pork and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for evening receptions and wedding breakfasts with sides.
In Pinner, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we will work through it together. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Questions from Pinner
Can you cater after a service at Christian Science Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Pinner?
The closest is Hatch End station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Can you cater in Pinner?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Pinner and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
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.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do we need extra food?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we will confirm it in writing.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Why choose a hog roast in Pinner?
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

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.
