About our wedding hog roast in Twyford
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. Whether it is wedding breakfasts and evening food after the first dance, we can cook salads, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes for your guests.
A farm or garden wedding near Twyford suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
