For weddings in GU24, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time.

Wedding hog roast in Castle Green, slow-roasted on site
We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access well before the day, so nothing is left to chance. Typical bookings include post-wedding gatherings and barn and farm weddings, with spit-roast lamb, crackling and new potatoes.
A wedding in a small place like Castle Green 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. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with pizza or other evening vans, a hog roast serves a crowd quickly once carving starts. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
Why us?
- Planned to your running order
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- All the equipment comes with us

A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
Evening food usually goes out an hour or two after the first dance, timed with you in advance.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A way in for the roaster
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- Light near the carving station after dark
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Full catering or machine hire?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
FAQs for Castle Green
Could you cook in Milford Green and Coxhill Green?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Castle Green from London?
Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, and our staff serve your guests.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
