A closer look at the menu
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing typically contains gluten.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. At midsummer, it’s light in Wingham Well until about 9:15pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

For event organisers in Wingham Well
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
FAQs for Wingham Well
Do you come out to small places like Wingham Well?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
