How our wedding hog roast works in Woodmancote
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. Typical bookings include the main wedding meal and second-day get-togethers, with rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and spit-roast lamb.
Near Woodmancote, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Woodmancote questions
What’s the nearest station to Woodmancote?
The closest is Southbourne station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do we need extra food?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
A hog roast or other catering?

What you get with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Planned to your running order
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Give final numbers in good time
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Winter weddings in Woodmancote are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Name a contact for the day
