Wedding hog roast in Woolmer Hill
Wedding hog roast near Woolmer Hill
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat. Whether it’s anniversary vow renewals and wedding breakfasts, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb.
Rural weddings around Woolmer Hill have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- Menu choices and extras
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Your menu choices
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture

Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.

Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Woolmer Hill: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Woolmer Hill?
Haslemere station, about 1.5 miles north-east of the centre.
Is Woolmer Hill too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you are unsure.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
We will be at the venue for most of the day, working quietly in the background.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.
Why choose a hog roast in Woolmer Hill?

Where the roaster can go in Woolmer Hill

- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

The process
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evening food at a Woolmer Hill wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.
- Tell us whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
