How our wedding hog roast works in Mimbridge
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so a long speech will not ruin the food. Whether it’s wedding breakfasts with sides and late-night wedding food, we can cook crackling, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers and more.
A wedding in a small place like Mimbridge frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Mimbridge
What’s the nearest station to Mimbridge?
The closest is Woking station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Mimbridge?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Mimbridge, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
