Slow-roasted pork in Witley
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
How our wedding hog roast works in Witley
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings, so nothing is left to chance. Popular choices include carved roast pork, salads and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater second-day get-togethers and garden weddings at home.
There is something special about a country wedding near Witley, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Lighting for evening service
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

About the food

Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, as an extra.
