Wedding hog roast near Durrington
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: it can be held for a while once cooked, so the food copes with a delayed running order. Whether it is weddings in a marquee and anniversary vow renewals, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and halloumi skewers and more.
For a smaller place like Durrington, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need level ground, cover and a way in. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Durrington
Is Durrington close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater after a service at St Symphorian's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Will guests be full?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
