Funeral wake catering near Cuddington
Some families choose a hog roast because it was a favourite. Tell us what matters to you and we will try to help. For wakes in village halls and remembrance gatherings, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, new potatoes and salads and more.
For a wake near Cuddington, a farmhouse or village hall frequently works well, with the roaster in the yard or garden. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power. In late September, sunset in Cuddington is about 7:05pm; in December, about 3:55pm, so a later wake may need lighting outside.
