About our wedding hog roast in Cackle Street

As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and crackling, and we’re often booked for relaxed, low-key weddings and late-night wedding food.

There is something special about a country wedding near Cackle Street, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Cackle Street questions

Which station is closest to Cackle Street?

Doleham station, about 1.6 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you roast near the sea around Cackle Street?

Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

Can you work around our timings?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Will our venue allow a hog roast?

Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Check with them first, and we will liaise with them.

Do we need extra food?

We will plan quantities from your numbers, and we will confirm it in writing.

Can we just hire the roaster?

We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.

Can you do our evening wedding food?

Yes. We’ll time it around your first dance and band.

Can you cook inside the marquee?

Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Catered or do it yourself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

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.

Step by step

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. For a summer wedding in Cackle Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

  1. Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
  2. You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
  3. The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
