Should I cook it myself?

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

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.

What the cooking area needs

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Lighting for evening service
  • Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
  • Space well clear of tents and trees

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Popular choices

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

The process

Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Evening food at a West End Green wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

  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. The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Note which guests do not eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten

You will not have to think about the food. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.

Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

For event organisers in West End Green

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
