About our wedding hog roast in Tattenham Corner
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Tattenham Corner. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and serve inside where the venue allows. Whether it is garden weddings at home and post-wedding gatherings, we can cook new potatoes, salads and carved roast pork.
A wedding in a small place like Tattenham Corner frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Some couples add lights around the serving area.
Tattenham Corner questions
Could you cook in Merland Rise Recreational Ground?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
We’re gathering after a service at St Mark: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. In Tattenham Corner, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
