Wedding hog roast near Chobham
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: it can be held for a while once cooked, so the food copes with a delayed running order. Whether it’s relaxed, low-key weddings and weddings in a family garden, we can cook salads, carved roast pork and crackling and more.
For a smaller place like Chobham, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need a level spot and access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Some couples add lights around the serving area.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- Power for lights in the evening
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- New potatoes
- Hog roast rolls
- Crackling

Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
