DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, and cook into the evening.
China crockery is available on request.
About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.

What else we do in Marston
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?
Next to a restaurant booking, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

Is Marston too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Marston from London?
About 53 miles from central London.
Do December dates go quickly?
December weekends go first. Send your date early.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you cover Marston?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
