A wedding in a small place like South Harefield frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- The number of people
- Menu choices and extras
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

South Harefield questions
Do you come out to small places like South Harefield?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Will guests be full?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What if things run late?
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.
Can you cater in South Harefield?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
