About our wedding hog roast in Bloxham
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so a long speech won’t ruin the food. We serve rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater second-day get-togethers and home weddings.
Weddings in a place like Bloxham frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

About the food
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Rough numbers
- What the outdoor space is like
- The venue or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
Every wedding is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your wedding: use our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Evening food at a Bloxham wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
We’ll be at the venue for most of the day, working quietly in the background.
Choose sides to make it a full meal.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
