About our funeral wake catering in Muddles Green
A wake might be at home, a village or church hall, a club or a pub. We need an outdoor spot to cook, and the food can be served inside. Whether it is church and village hall wakes and home wakes, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
Near Muddles Green, wakes are frequently at home or in the hall. Let us know about access. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

For planners, venues and organisers

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
Food is served as everyone gathers, quietly and respectfully.
Add chicken as an alternative.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
- Parking close by for our vehicle
- Approval from the landlord or committee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Muddles Green questions
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How far is Muddles Green from London?
Roughly 43 miles from the centre of London.
Can you cater at home?
Homes, halls, clubs and venues, as long as there is an outdoor spot to cook.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
