About our wedding hog roast in Shripney
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. For anniversary vow renewals and evening food after the first dance, we can cook salads, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
Rural weddings around Shripney have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- Distance from us

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Allergies we should know about
- An estimate of numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner

Planners, venues and businesses
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Do you come out to small places like Shripney?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
