Book a hog roast in Chinnor

How the day works

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. At a December wedding in Chinnor, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
  3. We fit timings around your running order.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
  5. We serve, tidy up and slip away.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

About our wedding hog roast in Chinnor

For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. Typical bookings include garden weddings at home and relaxed, low-key weddings, serving rotisserie chicken, salads and carved roast pork.

In Chinnor, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Full catering or machine hire?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Prices and what affects them

Each price is built from:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Whether you want china
  • Access to the cooking area
  • How many people are eating

For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

  • Your date and serving time
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • The venue or postcode
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
  • If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

Our staff serve and clear quietly, so the party carries on around us.
