Wedding hog roast in Great Tew, carved to order
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: a cooked roast holds for a while, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We serve new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and carved roast pork, and we are regularly asked to cater wedding breakfasts and weddings in a family garden.
Rural weddings around Great Tew have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

A hog roast or other catering?
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What you get with us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Sides to make it a full meal

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. Golden-hour photos in Great Tew at midsummer come around 9:30pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

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 will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Great Tew: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Michael and All Angels?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How far is Great Tew from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
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.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
