Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Egham Hythe
Could you cook in Penton Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
We’re gathering after a service at St Paul's Church: can you cater?
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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Will guests be full?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we’ll confirm it in writing.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.

What else we do in Egham Hythe
For event organisers in Egham Hythe
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Step by step
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. For a summer wedding in Egham Hythe, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.
