- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

Catered or do it yourself?
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.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Who books party hog roast in Marston?
Hardly any clearing up, because we bring plates and clear away.
Here’s what people in Marston most frequently book a hog roast for:
- Big family get-togethers
- Christenings
- Leaving and retirement do’s
- Big birthday parties
A green space like Oxford University Parks is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether travel is included
- How many staff will carve and serve
- What crockery is supplied
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At midsummer, it is light in Marston until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.

- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We leave the garden tidy.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
