Organising for someone else?
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Woodham
Is Woodham close to London?
Roughly 21 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St John the Baptist: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Ask your venue early, and we’ll liaise with them.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Woodham, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.
Before we arrive
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- Light near the carving station after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
