How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. Golden-hour photos in Mill Corner at midsummer come around 9:15pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We cook through the day and serve right on cue.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Wedding hog roast in Mill Corner, carved to order

Rural weddings around Mill Corner have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
