About our wedding hog roast in Tyler's Green
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. For marquee weddings and home weddings, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
Rural weddings around Tyler's 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. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
Tyler's Green questions
Is Tyler's Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Could you cook in Bay Pond?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. At a December wedding in Tyler's Green, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.

- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
How to prepare

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and often better value. It still feels special. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
