The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it is carved the same way.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Space, access and the venue
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. At midsummer, sunset in Aldingbourne is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
Before we arrive
