Hog roast hire in Wexham Court, slow-roasted on site
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is what you get when you book a hog roast in Wexham Court. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and you can add sides and other meats. Whether it’s wedding breakfasts and evening food and staff days and open days, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
In a hamlet or village like Wexham Court, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
Your questions about a hog roast in Wexham Court
We’re gathering after a service at Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Wexham Court?
Slough station, about 1.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you serve the crackling?
Of course: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
