Wedding hog roast for Burgh Heath
How our wedding hog roast works in Burgh Heath
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. We serve spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and carved roast pork, and we are regularly asked to cater home weddings and the day after the wedding.
Rural weddings around Burgh Heath have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, low and slow, for hours.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Evening food at a Burgh Heath wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.

Getting ready for the day

Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.

What we serve, dish by dish

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
