How our wedding hog roast works in Bramley
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Bramley suit a hog roast. We cook outside, under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. Popular choices include new potatoes, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and we’re regularly asked to cater garden weddings at home and the day after the wedding.
In Bramley, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give final numbers in good time
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
For evening food, we carve as the dancing gets going, timed with you in advance.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In Bramley, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is generally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
How to prepare
