What else we do in Crowell
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Golden-hour photos in Crowell at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

Questions from Crowell
Is Crowell close to London?
About 38 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Do we need extra food?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and the quote lists everything.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- The journey to the venue
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
To get the best quote, send us:
- Roughly how many people
- Any venue rules
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- What the outdoor space is like
If you’re comparing hog roast caterers for Crowell, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten
Our staff serve and clear quietly, so the party carries on around us.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- A way in for the roaster
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
