Slow-roasted pork in Corhampton
How our wedding hog roast works in Corhampton
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. Popular choices include crackling, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater late-night wedding food and post-wedding gatherings.
Rural weddings around Corhampton 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. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it’s carved the same way, frequently with mint sauce.

Working with your venue

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Time on site
- The journey to the venue
- Plates or china
- The number of people
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Give final numbers in good time
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Just keep us informed.

What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Evening food at a Corhampton wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
