Questions from Hampers Green
Do you come out to small places like Hampers Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Hampers Green from London?
About 41 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
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.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Wedding hog roast near Hampers Green
We look after guests who do not eat pork: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers and a vegan option. Halal meat is not available. For the main wedding meal and relaxed, low-key weddings, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes and more.
Rural weddings around Hampers Green 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. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- Power for lights in the evening
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Step by step
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. For a summer wedding in Hampers Green, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.

- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with pizza or other evening vans, carving serves a lot of people fast. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Hampers Green hosts choose us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Choices for people who do not eat pork

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
