How our funeral wake catering works in Foulford
Services can run over, and that’s fine: a cooked roast can be held for a while. Give us a contact for the day. On the menu are roast pork in rolls or on plates, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater memorial events and life celebrations.
In a small place like Foulford, a wake might be at home, in a barn or at the village hall. Tell us about lanes and the ground. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In winter, it is dark in Foulford by about 4:05pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting by the food. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.
- Get in touch when the date is set.
- We check the cooking spot with the venue.
- We cook on site.
- Our staff serve without fuss.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We hold the food if people are delayed.
Add chicken as an alternative.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level outdoor area
- A short route for the equipment
- Space inside for guests

Common questions in Foulford
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you cater after a service at St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you need anything from the family?
Not much: an outdoor cooking spot and someone to meet us.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
Is there an alternative to pork?
We can add alternatives.
Do you cover Foulford?
Yes, Foulford is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
