Wedding hog roast near Chicheley
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Chicheley. We cook outside, under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for the day after the wedding and rustic barn receptions.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Chicheley, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
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.
Chicheley: your questions answered
How far is Chicheley from London?
About 49 miles from central London.
Is Chicheley too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with pizza or other evening vans, carving serves plenty of people fast. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why Chicheley hosts choose us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Fresh carving at the serving station
