About our wedding hog roast in Chilton
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Chilton suit a hog roast. We cook outside, under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. Typical bookings include evening food after the first dance and home weddings, serving salads, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
A wedding in a small place like Chilton frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot.

Common questions in Chilton
Can you cater after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Chilton close to London?
About 52 miles from central London.
Do we need extra food?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we will confirm it in writing.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
