Slow-roasted pork in Idbury
How our wedding hog roast works in Idbury
A hog roast is made for marquee, barn and garden weddings near Idbury. We cook outside, under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. We’re often asked to cater marquee weddings and rustic barn receptions, with salads, crackling and carved roast pork.
Near Idbury, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
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, quoted separately.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Winter weddings in Idbury are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- Our chef carves and the team serves and clears.
