Catering in Crediton | Hog Roasts, BBQs & Event Catering in Crediton

Catering in Crediton — Devon Event Catering from Salt Wind Crediton is mid-Devon farm country — barn venues, wildflower meadows, working estates and the Exe Valley running through the middle of it. The outdoor events here aren't fussy. They're proper, rural, generous — the kind hog roast and BBQ catering was made for. Mid Devon is one of our shorter Devon runs and a region we cover regularly. Honest food for honest events. Salt Wind Catering is based at 37 Fore Street, Redruth — around 1h 40m (80 miles) from Crediton via the A30 east to Exeter, then the A377 north up the Exe Valley. We travel into Devon regularly for weddings, corporate events, festivals and film/TV productions. We're fully self-sufficient — we bring our own kit, our own fuel, our own everything. Cook on-site, serve on-site, clear up on-site. No venue kitchen needed, no awkward conversations with in-house chefs. A note on travel — Devon is a travel supplement area. We're based in Redruth, and crossing the Tamar adds a real cost to the day in fuel and crew time. The supplement is calculated to your exact postcode and confirmed upfront in your written quote. There are no surprises on the day, no hidden charges added at the end. You'll know what you're paying before you book, and the figure won't change. What We Bring to Your Crediton Event Every event we cater in Crediton is freshly prepared and cooked on-site. Here's what we offer: Hog Roast Catering — Whole hogs sourced from trusted farms, cooked low and slow on-site through the day until guests are arriving and the smell does the marketing for you. Best for 60+ guests, smaller pigs available from 30+. Proper crackling, apple sauce, fresh rolls — no shortcuts. BBQ Catering — Premium charcoal BBQs with proper meats, vibrant fresh sides and real smoke flavour. Forget the supermarket sausage. We bring the kit, the fuel, the food, and we cook it on the spot. Venues and Locations We Cover Around Crediton Whether your event is at a known venue or a private home, we handle the catering logistics. Here are three Crediton-area venues we know well: Harefield Barn — A family farm wedding venue with wildflower meadows and a converted barn, ten minutes from Exeter. The grounds suit hog roast or charcoal BBQ — open ground, plenty of space, no kitchen pressure. Upton Barn (The Foundry) — A converted barn venue with corporate event packages, private weddings and dinners. Hog roast on the courtyard; charcoal BBQ inside the barn if the Devon weather changes its mind. Pynes House — A 37-acre Exe Valley country estate with exclusive-use private hire. The lawns take a hog roast comfortably and the formal gardens give us space to set up alongside without crowding the venue. We cover the wider mid-Devon area — Sandford, Cheriton Fitzpaine, Bow, the Exe Valley villages. EX17 and EX5. Why Salt Wind for a Devon Event We're 5-star food hygiene rated, FSB members and NCASS registered. Everything's freshly prepared in our Redruth kitchen using locally-sourced produce — no packet food, no warmed-up trays from a warehouse, no pre-portioned plastic anything. Our hog roast and BBQ setups are fully self-contained: we don't need your venue's power, water or kitchen facilities. We arrive, set up, cook, serve, clear and leave the space as we found it. Most of our team has been doing this work for years — and the kit, the experience and the standards travel with us across the Tamar. We've provided catering support for organisations including the NHS, National Grid, Cornwall Council, WWF and Savills — clients who need reliability, professionalism and food that doesn't let them down. The drive into Devon doesn't change any of that. We plan our Devon days around the journey: prep starts earlier, the team leaves earlier, and the cooking on-site is timed exactly the same as it would be for an event ten minutes from our kitchen. We're not a national chain. We're not running fifteen events at once and slotting yours in between. When we book a Crediton job we commit to it properly — proper crew, proper kit, proper food. Guests notice. Venue managers notice. Production managers notice. And on the back of that, we get asked back. Not Just Weddings — Corporate, Festival and Production We cater for everything in Crediton. Corporate days, supplier events, summer parties on the company grounds, awards dinners, Christmas hospitality. We feed film and TV crews on shoot days — breakfast on the unit base before call, hot lunch on schedule, hot dinner if the day overruns. We work festival sites, community gatherings, charity fundraisers and milestone birthdays. Funeral wakes too — handled with care and discretion, always. If it needs feeding properly, we'll cater it. How Booking Works Send us an enquiry through the website with your event date, postcode and rough guest numbers. We'll come back with a tailored quote — including the Devon travel supplement calculated to your exact postcode — within a working day or two. For weddings and large events we recommend booking 4-6 weeks ahead; for corporate orders we can usually turn a quote around within 48 hours. Every menu accommodates vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free guests as standard, and any specific dietary requirements are built in at quote stage rather than as an afterthought.
