Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Slough Green
Do you come out to small places like Slough Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Slough Green from London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
With sides, it’s a full wedding breakfast; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
