Hog Roast Welling has catered many wedding receptions over many years now and it’s always a pleasure. We recently provided one of our delicious hog roast meals for 100 guests at St John’s Church in Welling, which is part of the New Wine network of churches. Welling itself is in the London borough of Bexley, and it’s a town where you will often smell the aromas of our scrumptious hog and spit roasts wafting around, as we have catered many private parties and corporate events in the area, as well as plenty of wedding meals like this one.
Our Hog Roast Welling team arrived nice and early on the day of the wedding, so we could prepare the meat fresh on-site, inside the church building. We carefully scored the meat all over and then lovingly covered it in water and lots of salt, to keep it moist and to turn the skin into gorgeous, crispy crackling. Once done, we turn the hog roast machine on and the hog roasts away in its own juices for several hours while we keep watch over it.
In addition to the centrepiece hog roast, this wedding meal would feature roasted new potatoes and seasonal vegetables of choice, which we cook inside the hog roast machine too, as it works like a conventional oven. The bride and groom also requested our yummy Yorkshire pudding, and for these types of meals, we always provide our homemade gravy, our homemade sage and onion stuffing and our homemade apple sauce, too, as a hog roast would just not be the same without them. We always ensure that we use high quality, fresh ingredients, and homemade food wherever possible, as you can probably tell.
The bride, groom and their guests had waited long enough for the hog roast to cook to perfection and it was finally time to serve up some really tasty food. Once the meat, veg, and potatoes had all been devoured, Hog Roast Welling then plated up the beautiful wedding cake together with berries, cream, and a fruit coulis. It was a shame to cut into the cake but it certainly topped off a wonderful meal perfectly.
