About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Beedon, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, which means an evening hog roast is usually served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
Our staff serve and clear quietly, so the party carries on around us.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Why choose a hog roast in Beedon?
A common mix is a plated meal followed by an evening hog roast; others make the hog roast the main meal. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Questions from Beedon
Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Nicholas: 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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
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.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Beedon and the rest of West Berkshire included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
