Wedding hog roast near Peacehaven

For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. We’re often asked to cater small, informal weddings and marquee weddings, with rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads.

In Peacehaven, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Let us know about access. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Should I cook it myself?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

A hog roast compared with other options

Why book with us

  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork
