Crackling

For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.

Rotisserie chicken

Wedding hog roast near Selsfield Common

The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, salads and carved roast pork, and we are regularly asked to cater evening receptions and weddings in a marquee.

A wedding in a small place like Selsfield Common 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. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.

Organising for someone else?

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

We’ll be at the venue for most of the day, working quietly in the background.

Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.
