Wedding hog roast near Long Wittenham
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, on china if you’d like. We’re frequently asked to cater weddings in a family garden and evening receptions, with rotisserie chicken, salads and new potatoes.
There is something special about a country wedding near Long Wittenham, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Timings are planned around your wedding, working back from when you want to eat.

What affects the price in Long Wittenham
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates or china
- How long the roast and service take
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- 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
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
