Wedding hog roast in Trumps Green
How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In Trumps Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is normally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Think about shelter for your guests

About our wedding hog roast in Trumps Green
After hours of dancing, guests are hungry. Rolls with roast pork and crackling are just the thing, and they’re easy to eat with a drink in hand. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, crackling and carved roast pork, and we’re often booked for evening food after the first dance and wedding breakfasts.
Rural weddings around Trumps Green have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Trumps Green
Is Trumps Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast in Riverside Walk?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
It works well as a relaxed main meal, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Can we offer lamb too?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a wedding barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
