A hog roast near Munstead Heath
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Wedding hog roast in Munstead Heath, slow-roasted on site
We look after guests who don’t eat pork: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and carved roast pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater late-night wedding food and marquee receptions.
A wedding in a small place like Munstead Heath frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.

Munstead Heath questions
We’re gathering after a service at St John the Baptist Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you cook in Phillips Memorial Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
It’s one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
