Wedding hog roast across Hampshire

After hours of dancing, guests are hungry. Hog roast rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling do exactly that, and they’re easy to eat with a drink in hand. We serve rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and crackling, and we are often booked for intimate weddings and weddings in a family garden.

When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat.

  1. Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
  2. You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
  4. We arrive early and roast slowly on site.
  5. Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.

Wedding settings across Hampshire

Hampshire offers town venues in Basingstoke, Winchester and Gosport and countryside settings across 538 villages and hamlets. Whatever you choose, we agree the cooking spot with your venue. Parts of Hampshire are within a few miles of the New Forest National Park, the South Downs National Park and the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles. 143 of the places we cover in Hampshire are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.

Basingstoke: After a ceremony at a church like St Michael's Church, many couples move to a marquee or hall nearby, where the hog roast is waiting. It is worth telling train travellers that Basingstoke station, about 0.6 miles east, is the nearest station. At midsummer, sunset in Basingstoke is about 9:25pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

About the food

Crackling

Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:

  • Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Give final numbers in good time

We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.

Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

If your venue has an in-house caterer, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. There may be a fee.

What your quote should include

  • Travel and any London charges
  • The full menu and the sides
  • How many staff will carve and serve
  • When they arrive and when the food will be ready

DIY versus a catered hog roast

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

FAQs for Hampshire

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

When should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.

Do you bring plates?

We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.

What’s the price?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.

Can we offer lamb too?

Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
