Wedding hog roast in South Ealing, slow-roasted on site
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. On the menu are halloumi skewers, crackling and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater post-wedding gatherings and wedding breakfasts.
London weddings around South Ealing frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Your coordinator can keep us posted.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Travel to South Ealing
- The number of people
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

South Ealing: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What’s the nearest station to South Ealing?
The closest is Brentford station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
