Howe Hill questions
Is Howe Hill too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee, and we agree the spot with your venue.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
About the food
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
A hog roast compared with other options
If your venue has an in-house caterer, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. Some venues charge a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Served at the time you choose
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Give your coordinator the final menu
You will not have to think about the food. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Howe Hill, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Let us know about tight access
