Wedding hog roast in East Worldham
The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Golden-hour photos in East Worldham at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Tell us whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.

Getting ready for the day
