Wedding hog roast for Burntcommon
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Burntcommon
What’s the nearest station to Burntcommon?
The closest is Clandon station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
Is Burntcommon too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, and our staff serve your guests.
Can we offer lamb too?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the hog.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Of course. We’ll agree a serving time around your running order.
Wedding hog roast in Burntcommon, slow-roasted on site
The carving station becomes a focal point: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. On the menu are crackling, halloumi skewers and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater home weddings and second-day get-togethers.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Burntcommon, 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.
A hog roast compared with other options
If your venue does its own catering, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. Some venues charge a fee. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved to order by a chef

What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
