Slow-roasted pork in Amersham on the Hill

Wedding hog roast near Amersham on the Hill

Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue. For garden weddings at home and anniversary vow renewals, we’ll put together a menu of carved roast pork, halloumi skewers and crackling and more.

In Amersham on the Hill, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Let us know about access. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Why choose a hog roast in Amersham on the Hill?

Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Why book with us

  • An itemised quote
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

Choosing a hog roast caterer

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

For event organisers in Amersham on the Hill

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
