Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power. At a December wedding in Snagshall, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
How to prepare
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Why choose a hog roast in Snagshall?
If your venue has an in-house caterer, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. There may be a fee. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- How long the roast and service take
- Plates or china
- The number of people
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time

- What the outdoor space is like
For a quote, send us a few details: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

Snagshall: your questions answered
How far is Snagshall from London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St James?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do we need extra food?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
