Wedding hog roast near West Horsley
We look after guests who do not eat pork: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not available. We are frequently asked to cater home weddings and marquee receptions, with rotisserie chicken, salads and spit-roast lamb.
In West Horsley, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Let us know about access. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.
