Wedding hog roast in South Bersted, carved to order
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. Whether it’s marquee receptions and late-night wedding food, we will put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
Weddings in a place like South Bersted often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Your coordinator can keep us posted.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Travel to South Bersted
- Access to the cooking area
- Menu choices and extras
- Crockery choices
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Rough numbers

How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. For a summer wedding in South Bersted, 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. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and which meal you’d like.
- 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.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us a contact number for the day

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Permission for outside catering
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Crackling
- New potatoes
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Spit-roast lamb
- Roast or jacket potatoes
- Salads
- Hog roast rolls
Catered or do it yourself?
