About our wedding hog roast in West Silvertown
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue. Whether it’s post-wedding gatherings and wedding breakfasts, we can cook rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads and more.
London weddings around West Silvertown frequently mean a reception at a hired venue, a pub with a garden or a family home. We need an outdoor cooking area clear of the venue, so check with the venue early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

The closest is Custom House station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
What if our house in West Silvertown has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
How big a hog will we need?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s 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.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
