Wedding hog roast near Horsham

A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Horsham. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. Typical bookings include vow renewals and blessings and barn and farm weddings, with halloumi skewers, salads and new potatoes.

Horsham has plenty of wedding venues, from hotels and function rooms to clubs and gardens. A hog roast suits any reception with outdoor space for the roaster. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

A hog roast compared with other options

Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and typically costs less per head. It still feels like a feast. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What you get with us

  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

See our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.

How it works

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Horsham, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
  5. Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

How to prepare

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Horsham: your questions answered

Can you cater after a service at Hope Chapel?

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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.

What’s the nearest station to Horsham?

Horsham station, in Horsham itself.

How long does the roast need?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

Is crockery included?

We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

Can the hog roast be for the evening?

Of course. We will agree a serving time around your running order.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What’s the price?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.

Can you roast in the rain?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
