About our wedding hog roast in Ifold
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat is not available. Whether it’s marquee weddings and wedding breakfasts, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and salads and more.
Rural weddings around Ifold have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.

Ifold questions
Is Ifold too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Can we add a second roast?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a cold buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Winter weddings in Ifold are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
