How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. At a December wedding in Amberley, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Give final numbers in good time
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
Evening food normally goes out an hour or two after the first dance, timed with you in advance.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
A hog roast or other catering?
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others make the hog roast the main meal. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
