How our wedding hog roast works in Stone Street
For a relaxed wedding in Stone Street, a hog roast hits the right note: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. We serve and tidy up, so you can enjoy it. For marquee weddings and vow renewals and blessings, we’ll put together a menu of salads, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
Rural weddings around Stone Street have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
A hog roast compared with other options
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Evening food at a Stone Street wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
