How our wedding hog roast works in Frogham
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue. For blessings and renewals and the main wedding meal, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
There is something special about a country wedding near Frogham, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains.

Common questions in Frogham
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Holy Ascension: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Check with them first, and we’ll work with them on the details.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
Yes. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
