Wedding hog roast for Richmond

Wedding hog roast near Richmond

Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so nothing is left to chance. We serve carved roast pork, new potatoes and salads, and typical bookings are for late-night wedding food and weddings in a marquee.

Couples in Richmond frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, so check with the venue early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

A hog roast or other catering?

Next to a cold buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

Why us?

  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to

Common questions in Richmond

What if our house in Richmond has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Could you cook in Terrace and Buccleuch Gardens?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Do we need our own staff?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Will our venue allow a hog roast?

Check with the venue first: rules vary. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.

How much room do you need?

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Time on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • The number of people
  • Season and day of the week

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

Details that help

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • The address or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • Rough numbers

When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

What the cooking area needs

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:

  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
  • Space well clear of tents and trees

Richmond 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.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

A closer look at the menu

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.

Why choose wedding hog roast in Richmond?

Guests gather round the carving, and it makes a lovely photo.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Evening food at a Richmond wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

  1. Tell us whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
  4. We arrive early and roast slowly on site.
  5. Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

DIY versus a catered hog roast

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
