What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.

For event organisers in Selsey

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

How it works

Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. For a summer wedding in Selsey, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Looking after everyone

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Give your coordinator the final menu
  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Put a dietary question on the invitation

We will be at the venue for most of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.

China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

Selsey questions

Can you roast near the sea around Selsey?

Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.

How far is Selsey from London?

Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London.

Is crockery included?

Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

What if our venue has its own caterer?

It depends on the venue. Ask your venue early, and we’ll liaise with them.

Can you cook inside the marquee?

The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.

What happens in bad weather?

We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

When do you start roasting?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Can we just hire the roaster?

We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.

  • The date and time of year
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Numbers

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • The address or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
