Wedding hog roast in Wellbrook, carved to order

We look after guests who do not eat pork: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat is not available. For relaxed, low-key weddings and rustic barn receptions, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and salads and more.

A wedding in a small place like Wellbrook often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

About the food

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.

Stuffing and apple sauce

A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding

Things that change the price:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • How many people are eating
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • Crockery choices

Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

What to tell us

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • The address or postcode
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • What the outdoor space is like

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. For a summer wedding in Wellbrook, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  4. We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Before you choose a spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:

  • Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Popular choices

  • New potatoes
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Halloumi skewers (V)

  • Stuffing and apple sauce

For event organisers in Wellbrook

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
