About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Wedding hog roast near Binscombe
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. Whether it is relaxed, low-key weddings and wedding breakfasts, we can cook rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and salads.
A wedding in a small place like Binscombe frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Next to a wedding barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together without batches coming off a grill. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
