About our wedding hog roast in Bosham Hoe
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. For marquee receptions and vow renewals and blessings, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes for your guests.
Near Bosham Hoe, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Step by step
Here’s how the day generally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In Bosham Hoe, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- We cook through the day and serve right on cue.

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Full catering or machine hire?

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and often better value. It still feels like a feast. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book with us
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

Working with your venue

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
