Wedding hog roast in Midgham Green
Wedding hog roast in Midgham Green, carved to order
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so a long speech won’t ruin the food. We serve carved roast pork, new potatoes and crackling, and typical bookings are for second-day get-togethers and anniversary vow renewals.
Near Midgham Green, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten

- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Evening food typically goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.

- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Served at the time you choose

How it works
