Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

About our wedding hog roast in Preston Crowmarsh
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t available. Whether it’s weddings in a marquee and second-day get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, halloumi skewers and salads.
There is something special about a country wedding near Preston Crowmarsh, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Questions from Preston Crowmarsh
Do you come out to small places like Preston Crowmarsh?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Helen?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How it works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Evening food at a Preston Crowmarsh wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.

Planning help
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
