Wedding hog roast in Stadhampton, carved to order
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. We serve salads, halloumi skewers and crackling, and we’re frequently booked for the day after the wedding and garden weddings at home.
A wedding in a small place like Stadhampton frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Evening food normally goes out an hour or two after the first dance, timed with you in advance.

What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Golden-hour photos in Stadhampton at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
