Wedding hog roast in Cox Green, slow-roasted on site
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and crackling, and we’re regularly asked to cater rustic barn receptions and post-wedding gatherings.
A farm or garden wedding near Cox Green suits a hog roast. We need a level spot and access. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. In Cox Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
- The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
- We arrive early and roast slowly on site.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
How to prepare
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Planning help
DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
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.
Common questions in Cox Green
Can you cater after a service at All Saints' Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Ockwells Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Many couples do exactly that, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
We serve and clear without fuss, so the party carries on around us.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
