Wedding hog roast in Ninfield
Wedding hog roast in Ninfield, carved to order
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue. On the menu are carved roast pork, crackling and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings in a family garden and wedding breakfasts.
A wedding in a small place like Ninfield frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

The process
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. At a December wedding in Ninfield, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:15pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Step-free access for our equipment
- Power for lights in the evening
- Permission for outside catering
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
