Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Planning the cooking spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
- Permission for outside catering
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Planners, venues and businesses

Marsh Baldon questions
Could you cook in Nuneham Courtenay?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
Will guests be full?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and we’ll confirm it in writing.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
