How our wedding hog roast works in Warblington
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. For garden weddings at home and late-night wedding food, we can cook crackling, spit-roast lamb and carved roast pork and more.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Warblington, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Evening food usually goes out an hour or two after the first dance.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.

What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In Warblington, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
