About our wedding hog roast in Sullington
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. We serve new potatoes, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for garden weddings at home and rustic barn receptions.
There is something special about a country wedding near Sullington, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Sullington questions
What’s the nearest station to Sullington?
Amberley station, about 4.7 miles west of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you do evening food?
It’s one of our most popular wedding bookings. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: some welcome outside caterers, others don’t. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
Can we offer lamb too?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken as a second option.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and often better value. It still feels like a feast. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
Some couples add lights around the serving area; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
