Choosing a hog roast caterer

Wedding hog roast near Aldwick

Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. Whether it is garden weddings at home and wedding breakfasts with sides, we will put together a menu of carved roast pork, new potatoes and crackling and more.

For a smaller place like Aldwick, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need a level spot and access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Give your coordinator the final menu
  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card

You will not have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.

China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

What you get with us

  • Timed around your day
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • An itemised quote
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.

Aldwick weddings: local tips

Aldwick is about 1 mile south-west of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Aldwick. Aldwick is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 25 miles away.

Couples marrying at local churches such as St Richard’s Church often hold the reception nearby, with the roast cooking through the ceremony. West Park can make a pretty photo stop, but check its rules for wedding groups first. The sea is within about 2 miles, so seaside venues are close. We will plan a sheltered cooking spot.

Anywhere in PO21, we can bring the roaster to you. Streets in the area include Fish Lane, Dark Lane and West Avenue, and a wedding on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to weddings in Nyetimber (1 mile west), Pagham (2 miles south-west), South Mundham (2 miles north-west), Fisher (3 miles north-west) and Sidlesham (3 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Worthing (14 miles east), Chichester (5 miles north-west), Selsey (5 miles south-west), Littlehampton (8 miles east), Emsworth (11 miles north-west) and Rustington (9 miles east).

Other landmarks nearby include Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (1.5 miles north-east) and Bognor Regis Museum (1.2 miles east).

Common questions in Aldwick

What about windy coastal sites?

Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

Which station is closest to Aldwick?

Bognor Regis station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.

What about guests who do not eat pork?

There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.

What should we sort out beforehand?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.

Do you do evening food?

Yes, evening food is very popular. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.

Will there be enough to go round?

We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.

Where will the roaster go at our wedding?

The roaster stays outdoors on level ground, and we agree the spot with your venue.

Do we need extra food?

Quantities are based on your guest list, and we will confirm it in writing.

Catered or do it yourself?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Working with your venue

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

What affects the price in Aldwick

We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • Whether you want china
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Numbers
  • How long the roast and service take

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

Details that help

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Your date and serving time
  • An estimate of numbers

Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Fill in our quote form.

The process

When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. In Aldwick, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
  4. We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

Preparing for the day

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
