Wedding hog roast near Stubbington
We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access well before the day, so nothing is left to chance. We’re frequently asked to cater late-night wedding food and marquee receptions, serving halloumi skewers, carved roast pork and crackling.
For a smaller place like Stubbington, a garden or farm wedding is frequently the dream. We need a level spot and access. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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.
Stubbington: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Holy Rood Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Stubbington close to London?
About 67 miles from central London.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Can we offer lamb too?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
Do you cover Stubbington?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Stubbington and Hampshire. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
The process
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Stubbington, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
