Common questions in Winkfield Row
How far is Winkfield Row from London?
Roughly 27 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Winkfield Row?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, and our staff serve your guests.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
For event organisers in Winkfield Row
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
The process
On the day, 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. At a December wedding in Winkfield Row, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.

Planning help
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
We work out each quote from:
- How long the roast and service take
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Give final numbers in good time
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
For evening food, we carve as the dancing gets going.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for any coeliac guests.
Where the roaster can go in Winkfield Row
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Lighting for evening service
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
