About our wedding hog roast in Salford
We look after guests who do not eat pork: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not available. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and we’re often booked for second-day get-togethers and small, informal weddings.
There is something special about a country wedding near Salford, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Salford
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
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. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Salford too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
It depends on the venue. Check with them first, and we’ll liaise with them.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Do you come to Salford?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Plates or china
- Distance from us
- How many people are eating
- Menu choices and extras
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. At a December wedding in Salford, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- 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.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
How to prepare
- Send final numbers in good time
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

What else we do in Salford
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and normally costs less per head. It still feels special. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
