About the food

Crackling

Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:

  • Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
  • Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
  • Give final numbers in good time

You will not have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.

China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, quoted separately.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Travel to Well End
  • Whether you want china
  • Site access
  • Numbers

Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

Getting an accurate quote

To get the best quote, send us:

  • Your menu choices
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Where the event is

To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the wedding is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Catered or do it yourself?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Space, access and the venue

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A route to wheel equipment to the spot
  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Popular choices

  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • New potatoes
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Salads
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Roast or jacket potatoes
  • Crackling
  • Rotisserie chicken

How the day works

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Evening food at a Well End wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

  1. Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.

How to prepare

  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
