Where the roaster can go in Wick
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Lighting for evening service
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Wedding hog roast near Wick
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Wick. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. We’re often asked to cater evening food after the first dance and blessings and renewals, serving spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and salads.
Weddings in a place like Wick often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Give your coordinator the final menu
You will not have to think about the food. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Winter weddings in Wick are dark by about 4:00pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
