Wedding hog roast in Offham, slow-roasted on site
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. For small, informal weddings and barn and farm weddings, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, crackling and carved roast pork.
A wedding in a small place like Offham 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. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

What affects the price in Offham
We work out each quote from:
- Season and day of the week
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Numbers
- Menu choices and extras
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Any venue rules
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The address or postcode
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Give final numbers in good time
We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

FAQs for Offham
What’s the nearest station to Offham?
The closest is Cooksbridge station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Peter?
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. Send us the address.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you come to Offham?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Yes, spit-roast lamb can go alongside the pork.
Do we need extra food?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are usually enough.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
