A hog roast near Hunton
Wedding hog roast in Hunton, slow-roasted on site
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat. Typical bookings include post-wedding gatherings and wedding breakfasts with sides, with rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and salads.
A wedding in a small place like Hunton often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Questions from Hunton
We are gathering after a service at Church of St James: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How far is Hunton from London?
About 58 miles from central London.
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 work back from your serving time.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Will guests be full?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
The process
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evening food at a Hunton wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:25pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
How to get a price
