A hog roast near Litlington

Wedding hog roast in Litlington, carved to order

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 vow renewals and blessings and garden weddings at home, we can cook rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and salads and more.

Near Litlington, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

The process

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your wedding in Litlington. For a summer wedding in Litlington, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  3. Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
  5. We clear away once everyone has eaten.

How to prepare

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Questions from Litlington

What about windy coastal sites?

Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

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

Do you bring plates?

We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.

How do we prepare?

Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You will get allergen details for everything.

How long does the roast need?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Looking after everyone

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
  • Give your coordinator the final menu
  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Put a dietary question on the invitation

We will be at the venue for most of the day, working quietly in the background.

For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.

Working with your venue

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

What comes off the roaster

Spit-roast lamb

With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Full catering or machine hire?

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

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.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
