Wedding hog roast in Earnley, slow-roasted on site
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings well before the day, so on the day everything is in place. We’re frequently asked to cater barn and farm weddings and small, informal weddings, serving salads, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
Near Earnley, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Before you choose a spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:

Common questions in Earnley
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is Earnley too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For a summer wedding in Earnley, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
