Party hog roast in Weeke, carved to order

Around Weeke, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of party. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What else we do in Weeke
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Weeke questions
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Matthew?
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 will gather.
How far is Weeke from London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater in Weeke?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Weeke and the rest of Hampshire included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Do we need to wash up?
We tidy the serving area.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- Neighbours warned about the smell

How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For an evening party in Weeke, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:10pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.

- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
