The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. At a December wedding in Middle Claydon, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- Tell us whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.
- We carve and serve, then clear away.

Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Middle Claydon questions
Do you come out to small places like Middle Claydon?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Middle Claydon close to London?
About 47 miles from central London.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
It’s one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
What the cooking area needs
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Space well clear of tents and trees
- Lighting for evening service
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
