Common questions in Aldworth
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you come out to small places like Aldworth?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?
Many couples do exactly that, with lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside.
Can you cater in Aldworth?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Aldworth and Oxfordshire. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Wedding hog roast in Aldworth, carved to order
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. For relaxed, low-key weddings and marquee receptions, we can cook carved roast pork, salads and spit-roast lamb.
Rural weddings around Aldworth have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. At midsummer, sunset in Aldworth is about 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.

A closer look at the menu
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Evening food generally goes out an hour or two after the first dance, timed with you in advance.
Some couples add lights around the serving area; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others make the hog roast the main meal. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why Aldworth hosts choose us
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
