A hog roast near Cooper's Corner
How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Cooper's Corner, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:15pm at midsummer, 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Cooper's Corner
Do you come out to small places like Cooper's Corner?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cater at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
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.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Your coordinator can keep us posted.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
