About our wedding hog roast in Broadfield

After hours of dancing, guests are hungry. Hog roast rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling do exactly that, and they’re easy to eat with a drink in hand. Typical bookings include intimate weddings and wedding breakfasts, serving new potatoes, carved roast pork and halloumi skewers.

Weddings in a place like Broadfield frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Let us know about access. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Before you choose a spot

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
  • A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee

Why choose a hog roast in Broadfield?

Compared with pizza or other evening vans, a hog roast serves a crowd quickly once carving starts. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Why book our hog roast in Broadfield

  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • No surprises: everything in writing
  • Fresh carving at the serving station

Take a look at how we price and our hog roast cost guide.

What affects the price in Broadfield

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Distance from us
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Whether you want china
  • The date and time of year

Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Share the menu with your venue coordinator
  • Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed

Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Just keep us informed.

For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.

Questions from Broadfield

We are gathering after a service at Christ The Lord: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

What’s the nearest station to Broadfield?

Crawley station, about 1.4 miles north-east of the centre.

Where does the hog roast go?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Can we have both pork and lamb?

Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the hog.

Can you work around our timings?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Can you cook inside the marquee?

We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.

What we serve, dish by dish

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
