Slow-roasted pork in Wroxall
Wedding hog roast in Wroxall, carved to order
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. We’re often asked to cater blessings and renewals and marquee receptions, with halloumi skewers, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
A wedding in a small place like Wroxall frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Wroxall
What’s the nearest station to Wroxall?
Shanklin station, about 2.2 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at St John's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Can you cater in Wroxall?
Yes, Wroxall is in our area. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Do we need extra food?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and we will confirm it in writing.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Power for lights in the evening
- Permission for outside catering
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
For somewhere as remote as Wroxall, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, for access and timings.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
