Wedding hog roast in Loxwood, carved to order
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. Whether it’s weddings in a marquee and wedding breakfasts, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
A wedding in a small place like Loxwood often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. 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.

A hog roast or other catering?
Some couples have a formal meal and a hog roast in the evening; others have the hog roast as the main event. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- All the equipment comes with us
- Served at the time you choose
- A choice of salads and potatoes

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at St John the Baptist: can you cater?
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. Tell us where you will gather.

Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Check with the venue first: rules vary. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
