A hog roast near Kingston Stert
Wedding hog roast in Kingston Stert, slow-roasted on site
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, and our chef carves on cue. We are often asked to cater farm weddings and post-wedding gatherings, with rotisserie chicken, crackling and salads.
A wedding in a small place like Kingston Stert frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Kingston Stert: your questions answered
Is Kingston Stert close to London?
Roughly 39 miles from the centre of London.
What’s the nearest station to Kingston Stert?
Princes Risborough station, about 4.6 miles east of the centre.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
Do you do evening food?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How the day works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss.

Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
