Wedding hog roast near Moreton
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It is food and a bit of theatre. Whether it’s marquee receptions and intimate weddings, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and crackling and more.
A wedding in a small place like Moreton frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

A hog roast compared with other options

Planning help
Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Moreton questions
What’s the nearest station to Moreton?

How far is Moreton from London?
About 42 miles from central London, and well within our area.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
What if things run late?

Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
