How our wedding hog roast works in Staples Corner
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat isn’t available. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and crackling, and we’re often booked for garden weddings at home and barn and farm weddings.
For a wedding in Staples Corner, the venue’s rules decide where a hog roast can go. A courtyard, garden or yard is ideal, and we’ll agree the details with them. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Why choose a hog roast in Staples Corner?
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and frequently better value. It still feels special. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Why us?
- Timed around your day
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Menu choices and extras
- Season and day of the week
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your menu choices
- Rough numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- A photo of the cooking area
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or NW2 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Planning for dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
We are on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. In Staples Corner, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- 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
- Name a contact for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Where the roaster can go in Staples Corner
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Step-free access for our equipment
Staples Corner is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Staples Corner
Can you cater after a service at Church of St John?
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 Staples Corner?
Staples Corner has its own station: Brent Cross West station.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do we need extra food?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we will confirm it in writing.
Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
