Wedding hog roast in Banstead, carved to order
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Banstead suit a hog roast. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. Typical bookings include the main wedding meal and intimate weddings, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb.
Weddings in a place like Banstead often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue does its own catering, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. Some venues charge a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
