About our wedding hog roast in Pitshanger
We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access, so nothing is left to chance. Whether it is wedding breakfasts and weddings in a family garden, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, salads and new potatoes.
In Pitshanger, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we’ll agree the details with them. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Golden-hour photos in Pitshanger at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest 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.
Preparing for the day

Planning help
For event organisers in Pitshanger
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Common questions in Pitshanger
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Pitshanger?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Barnabas: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
It’s one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We will sort the details with them.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Give final numbers in good time
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, for access and timings.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
Space, access and the venue
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Permission for outside catering
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Space well clear of tents and trees
Pitshanger is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
