A hog roast near Wallingford

Full catering or machine hire?

Wedding hog roast near Wallingford

Evening wedding food has one job: feed hungry dancers. Hog roast rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling do exactly that. For marquee weddings and farm weddings, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb for your guests.

In Wallingford, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

A closer look at the menu

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

For event organisers in Wallingford

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

Planning for dietary needs

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Share the menu with your venue coordinator

Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Just keep us informed.

Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

How the day works

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. At midsummer, sunset in Wallingford is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

  1. Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
  2. You get a quote listing menu, staff and plates.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Questions from Wallingford

Can you cater after a service at St Mary-le-More?

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 normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Can you do a hog roast in Kinecroft?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

What do people get?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Will guests be full?

For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.

Where will the roaster go at our wedding?

Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

How do we prepare?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.

What happens in bad weather?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a cold buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
