About our wedding hog roast in Wooden Hill
As a main meal, the hog roast is served on plates: carved pork with salads, new potatoes or roast potatoes, on china if you’d like. Whether it is marquee receptions and small, informal weddings, we can cook crackling, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken and more.
Near Wooden Hill, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The hog is roasted on site at your wedding, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. Some venues charge a fee. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Common questions in Wooden Hill
What’s the nearest station to Wooden Hill?
The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
Can you cater after a service at St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
We will plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Winter weddings in Wooden Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.

Looking after everyone

- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
Lamb alongside the pork gives guests a choice.
