Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The process
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Winter weddings in Wingham Green are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.

- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
