How our wedding hog roast works in Welling
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. Whether it’s home weddings and late-night wedding food, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
Couples in Welling often hold the reception at a local venue or at home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, which many London venues can’t offer, so ask early. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Welling
Which station is closest to Welling?
Welling station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Do you do evening food?
Of course. We’ll time it around your first dance and band.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Winter weddings in Welling are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

A hog roast or other catering?
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
