How our wedding hog roast works in Worplesdon
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so nothing is left to chance. On the menu are new potatoes, salads and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater weddings in a family garden and farm weddings.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Worplesdon, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
- Menu choices and extras
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Planning the cooking spot

- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Permission for outside catering
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Worplesdon questions
Could you cook in Fox Corner Wildlife Area?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you come out to small places like Worplesdon?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available alongside the hog.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We will sort the details with them.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Note which guests do not eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
We’re on site for much of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, quoted separately.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At midsummer, sunset in Worplesdon is about 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it is carved the same way, frequently with mint sauce.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
