Wedding hog roast in Tubney

How our wedding hog roast works in Tubney

We work with your venue on the cooking spot, timings and access well before the day, so nothing is left to chance. For anniversary vow renewals and evening food after the first dance, we will put together a menu of crackling, salads and carved roast pork.

Near Tubney, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?

Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Why us?

  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Served at the time you choose

Take a look at our prices page or our hog roast cost guide.

Organising for someone else?

If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Step by step

A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. At midsummer, sunset in Tubney is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 9:00pm, and in late September about 7:10pm.

  1. Tell us whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
  3. The venue and we agree where the roaster goes.
  4. We arrive early and roast slowly on site.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Weddings in Tubney: venues, ceremonies and travel

Tubney is about 4 miles west of Abingdon-on-Thames, in Oxfordshire. Tubney and the surrounding area are covered for weddings. Tubney is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Tubney to Oxford (7 miles away).

Within reach of Tubney are historic houses such as Appleton Manor (1.6 miles north) and Longworth House (3.4 miles west). If your reception is at a historic house or estate, ask early about its rules on caterers and gas cooking. Marrying at Church of St Lawrence? A reception in a garden, barn or marquee close by gives the roaster an outdoor spot.

Weddings anywhere in OX13 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and a serving time. Whether your wedding is on Old Coach Road and Abingdon Road or a nearby road, we’ll bring the roaster to you. Neighbouring places where we cater weddings include Frilford Heath (1 mile south-east), Fyfield (1 mile west), Frilford (1 mile south), Netherton (1 mile west) and Cothill (2 miles east).

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.

Catered or do it yourself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

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.

Planning for dietary needs

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
  • Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Collect dietary needs with RSVPs

If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Just keep us informed.

Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.

Planning the cooking spot

We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:

  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • A route to wheel equipment to the spot
  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Tubney

We are gathering after a service at Church of St Lawrence: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

How far is Tubney from London?

Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.

What’s included?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Will our venue allow a hog roast?

Your venue decides: some welcome outside caterers, others don’t. We will talk to them about the cooking spot.

Do you do evening food?

Yes, evening food is very popular. Hot pork rolls are perfect late in the evening.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.

What if things run late?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
