About our wedding hog roast in Charlbury
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. Whether it is marquee receptions and garden weddings at home, we can cook salads, new potatoes and carved roast pork for your guests.
Weddings in a place like Charlbury frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
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.

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Give final numbers in good time
- Give your coordinator the final menu
We’ll be at the venue for most of the day, out of the way, by the cooking area.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with pizza or other evening vans, a hog roast serves a crowd quickly once carving starts. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Planned to your running order
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Our staff serve and clear

For event organisers in Charlbury
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. For a summer wedding in Charlbury, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
