Wedding hog roast in Aldermaston Soke, slow-roasted on site
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, then carve at the time you’ve set. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, salads and new potatoes, and we are regularly asked to cater post-wedding gatherings and garden weddings at home.
A wedding in a small place like Aldermaston Soke often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Aldermaston Soke: your questions answered
Is Aldermaston Soke close to London?
About 45 miles from central London.
We’re gathering after a service at Saint Luke's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, and our staff serve your guests.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Step-free access for our equipment

About the food
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Golden-hour photos in Aldermaston Soke at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.
