Wedding hog roast in Codmore Hill, slow-roasted on site

For a relaxed wedding in Codmore Hill, a hog roast hits the right note: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. We serve and tidy up, so you can enjoy it. We’re frequently asked to cater relaxed, low-key weddings and the main wedding meal, with salads, halloumi skewers and carved roast pork.

A wedding in a small place like Codmore Hill 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. Let us know about access and ground. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why Codmore Hill hosts choose us

  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Timed around your day
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Sides to make it a full meal

What happens on the day

  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  3. We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.

Should I cook it myself?

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Is Codmore Hill close to London?

About 40 miles from central London.

We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Do you come to Codmore Hill?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.

Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?

Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.

Do you provide china?

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.

When should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.

Do you serve the food?

You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.

What’s the price?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Share the menu with your venue coordinator

Evening food normally goes out an hour or two after the first dance, timed with you in advance.

Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
