The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way, often with mint sauce.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.

What else we do in Regents Park
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Regents Park
Can you do a hog roast in St James' Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you cater after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
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.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are normally enough.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
