Wedding hog roast for Asheridge

Wedding hog roast in Asheridge, carved to order

Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We serve rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and crackling, and typical bookings are for intimate weddings and evening food after the first dance.

Rural weddings around Asheridge have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Do you serve the food?

You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.

Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?

Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
