Wedding hog roast for Hascombe
Wedding hog roast near Hascombe
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. For rustic barn receptions and weddings in a family garden, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, crackling and salads for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like Hascombe frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others make the hog roast the main meal. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- A clear quote with everything listed
- All the equipment comes with us
- Our staff serve and clear

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.

- Weddings in a marquee
- Small, informal weddings
- Blessings and renewals
- Rustic barn receptions
Marrying at Church of St Peter? A reception in a garden, barn or marquee close by gives the roaster an outdoor spot.
Questions to ask before booking
- Plates, china and cutlery
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- The space, cover and access they need
- Whether VAT is included
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At midsummer, sunset in Hascombe is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. What matters most:
- Travel to Hascombe

- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Numbers
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
