A christening at Church of St James followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan.

Questions from Aston
Is Aston close to London?
About 62 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St James?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
What about the neighbours?
It is worth warning them: roasting takes hours. They may want a roll.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A spot well away from the house
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Jacket potatoes
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Hog roast rolls
- Coleslaw
- Rotisserie chicken
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Salads
- Crackling
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Add a dietary question to the invite
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Instead of booking a restaurant, a hog roast at home lets everyone relax in the garden. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
What you get with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

- Cooked on the day, low and slow

About the food

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Evening parties in Aston need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:30pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
