Wedding hog roast in Nash Street, slow-roasted on site
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Nash Street. We cook outside, under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. For late-night wedding food and anniversary vow renewals, we can cook rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and new potatoes for your guests.
Rural weddings around Nash Street have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Nash Street questions
Is Nash Street too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast in Jeskyns?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we will confirm it in writing.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Check with the venue first: rules vary. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- Vegan option (Ve)
- Salads
- Crackling
- Hog roast rolls

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children typically like it too.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
For event organisers in Nash Street
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
