Other occasions in North Hinksey
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Step by step
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Winter weddings in North Hinksey are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
