About the food
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Plumpton Green: your questions answered
Is Plumpton Green close to London?
Roughly 39 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We are gathering after a service at All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes, evening food is very popular. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
Can you work around our timings?

Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.

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. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time late at night. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
