Wedding hog roast for Stepney
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We will liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

How our wedding hog roast works in Stepney
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. Typical bookings include evening receptions and rustic barn receptions, serving spit-roast lamb, salads and halloumi skewers.
In Stepney, venues set rules on outside caterers and gas cooking. Ask about a courtyard or garden, and we’ll work through it together. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Each price is built from:
- How long the roast and service take
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- An estimate of numbers
- The venue or postcode
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Stepney, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some couples have a formal meal and a hog roast in the evening; others have the hog roast as the main event. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why Stepney hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

- A way in for the roaster
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
