Slow-roasted pork in Dormers Wells

Funeral wake catering in Dormers Wells, carved to order

Served on plates with salads and potatoes, a hog roast is a full meal. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option are there for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. On the menu are new potatoes, roast pork in rolls or on plates and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater celebrations of life and gatherings at the family home.

For a wake in Dormers Wells, a hall or club with a yard or garden is frequently simplest. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
