Questions from Fewcott
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Fewcott?
The closest is Bicester North station, roughly 4 miles away.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Where can you serve a wake?
Most places, with an outdoor spot for cooking.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Yes, add chicken or a vegetarian option.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.

It copes with timings that shift.

What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Late-December sunset in Fewcott is about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the serving area and the door helps. In summer, there is daylight until about 9:30pm.

- We roast quietly while the service takes place.
- We serve quietly as people gather.

Preparing for the day
