Wedding hog roast in Damerham, slow-roasted on site
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, carved roast pork and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater the day after the wedding and anniversary vow renewals.
Near Damerham, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a wedding barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together without batches coming off a grill. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Why us?
- An itemised quote
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Damerham questions
Is Damerham too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St George?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you cover Damerham?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Damerham and the rest of Hampshire included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. At a December wedding in Damerham, it’s dark by about 4:05pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
