Wedding hog roast in New Milton
Wedding hog roast in New Milton, slow-roasted on site
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings well before the day, so nothing is left to chance. Whether it is wedding breakfasts with sides and marquee receptions, we will put together a menu of carved roast pork, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb and more.
A farm or garden wedding near New Milton suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Timings are planned around your wedding, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give your coordinator the final menu
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. In New Milton, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.
