Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.

Wedding hog roast near Eton
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We are often asked to cater intimate weddings and weddings in a family garden, with crackling, new potatoes and salads.
Near Eton, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
