Wedding hog roast in Tangley, carved to order
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Tangley suit a hog roast. We cook outside, under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. On the menu are carved roast pork, spit-roast lamb and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater weddings in a marquee and blessings and renewals.
A wedding in a small place like Tangley frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
You will not have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a formal three-course meal, a hog roast is more relaxed and often better value. It still feels like a feast. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book our hog roast in Tangley
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Tangley, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A way in for the roaster
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- Light near the carving station after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
