Incredible catering for our wedding!
LJB Hogs were absolutely exceptional and incredible value for what they delivered. We couldn’t be happier with the food, service and vibes they brought to our wedding party. All of our guests complemented the outstanding hog roasts, vegan pie options, all the sides, canapés and the evening food of charcuterie and cheese boards. There was plenty for everybody with some hog roast left over which we put in Tupperwares to freeze and enjoy after the wedding. Gordon was brilliant to work with. He and his team were responsive ahead of the day, and as our wedding arrived, he was professional from start to finish, serving all the food on time to top quality. As well as catering, we hired a bouncy castle through Gordon which was SO much fun, another highlight of the day, and the little boozer which got plenty of use and attention. Highly and happily recommended. Thanks again Gordon. We loved having you.

Fantastic meal for >100 person wedding breakfast
Absolutely fantastic three course wedding meal for 106 guests (charcuterie buffet starter, hog roast main, lemon tart dessert) and provision of crockery, cutlery and glassware. Incredibly fairly priced (significantly lower cost than the several three course caterers I received quotes from), excellent communication, organization, flexibility, adaptability, conscientiousness and composure: all key attributes in this field. Importantly, the food was awesome; delicious hog roast, apple sauce and gravy with perfectly cooked vegetables, all served at the optimal temperature on warm plates. I would 100% recommend Gordon and his entire team.

If I could give 6 stars I would.
Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. The food was delicious and our guests were very happy.
Gordon and his team pay attention to detail and nothing was too much trouble. They also offer great pork alternatives and Veggie options for those of your guests that may need it. Adding a hog roast to your event really makes it!

All I can say is wow! We hired LJB charred hogs for our wedding and they did not disappoint. The staff were friendly and the food was exceptional. We’ve had so many comments from our guests to say that it was by far the best hog roast they’ve ever had.

Extremely professional, helpful in every way and the food is fantastic. Brilliant team and love the connection with the armed forces. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough, you would be mad not to use them.
