How our wedding hog roast works in Old Windsor
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It is food and a bit of theatre. For barn and farm weddings and home weddings, we can cook new potatoes, crackling and halloumi skewers and more.
A farm or garden wedding near Old Windsor suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Working with your venue

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give final numbers in good time
We will liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
