Planning an event in Fritwell?
Full catering or machine hire?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
How our wedding hog roast works in Fritwell
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Fritwell. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. Whether it is post-wedding gatherings and relaxed, low-key weddings, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Fritwell, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

About the food
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding in Fritwell. In Fritwell, midsummer sunset is about 9:30pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We arrive early and roast slowly on site.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Working with your venue
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
