Wedding hog roast in Coxford
How our wedding hog roast works in Coxford
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Coxford. We cook outside, under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. On the menu are carved roast pork, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and we are frequently booked for wedding breakfasts with sides and home weddings.
For a smaller place like Coxford, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need a level spot and access. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- Light near the carving station after dark
- A way in for the roaster

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Questions from Coxford
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Could you cook in St James' Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground, and we agree the spot with your venue.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
