Wedding hog roast in Oxford, carved to order
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: it can be held for a while once cooked, so the food copes with a delayed running order. We’re often asked to cater rustic barn receptions and the day after the wedding, with spit-roast lamb, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
Wedding receptions in and around Oxford frequently use a hotel, a hired venue or a family garden. Whichever you choose, we’ll agree the cooking spot with the venue. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Give final numbers in good time
We will liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Oxford
Can you do a hog roast in South Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Oxford from London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Many do, but some only allow approved caterers or charge a fee. Check with them first, and we will liaise with them.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
It’s one of our most popular wedding bookings. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.

What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Here’s what affects the price:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Travel to Oxford
- Crockery choices
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your date and serving time
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
