Wedding hog roast in Kingston near Lewes, carved to order

Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Kingston near Lewes suit a hog roast. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. We serve crackling, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we’re often booked for weddings in a family garden and vow renewals and blessings.

There is something special about a country wedding near Kingston near Lewes, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Give final numbers in good time
  • Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed

If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Just keep us informed.

Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Kingston near Lewes

Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Can you cater after a service at St Pancras Church (Kingston near Lewes)?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

What should we sort out beforehand?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Do you bring plates?

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Do venues allow outside hog roasts?

Check with the venue first: some welcome outside caterers, others don’t. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.

Can you work around our timings?

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

How it works

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your wedding. Winter weddings in Kingston near Lewes are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.

  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  4. We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.

How to prepare

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
