Slow-roasted pork in Littlehampton
Wedding hog roast near Littlehampton
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. We serve salads, crackling and carved roast pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater barn and farm weddings and relaxed, low-key weddings.
A wedding in Littlehampton might mean a church ceremony followed by a reception in a garden, marquee or hall. That suits a hog roast perfectly: we roast outdoors while the reception gets going. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Common questions in Littlehampton
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can you cater in Littlehampton?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Littlehampton and West Sussex. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Why choose a hog roast in Littlehampton?
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What you get with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

Before you choose a spot

- A route to wheel equipment to the spot

- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
How it works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. At midsummer, sunset in Littlehampton is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
