A hog roast near Wormshill
Wedding hog roast near Wormshill
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We’re frequently asked to cater the day after the wedding and weddings in a marquee, serving spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and salads.
Rural weddings around Wormshill have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
How the day works

Wormshill questions
Can you cater after a service at St Giles?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Wormshill too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Will our venue allow a hog roast?
Check with the venue first: rules vary. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.
Do you cover Wormshill?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
