Wedding hog roast for Shottesbrooke
How our wedding hog roast works in Shottesbrooke
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, with china available on request. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, salads and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for evening food after the first dance and garden weddings at home.
A wedding in a small place like Shottesbrooke frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Questions from Shottesbrooke
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St John the Baptist: can you cater?

Twyford station, about 3.3 miles west of the centre.
Will guests be full?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are typically enough.

Yes. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you bring plates?

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
