Wedding hog roast near Bourne End
Evening wedding food has one job: feed hungry dancers. Hog roast rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling do exactly that. We serve crackling, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes, and we are regularly asked to cater weddings in a marquee and anniversary vow renewals.
For a smaller place like Bourne End, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need a level spot and access. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.

Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
