Our hog roast service in Buckingham
Buckingham gave the county its name, and for a long time it was the county town, though Aylesbury has since taken on that role. Today it's a compact, handsome market town on a loop of the River Great Ouse, with Georgian streets, the old gaol on the market hill and the University of Buckingham adding students to the mix. Farmland and small villages surround it, and the landscape gardens at Stowe lie just to the north.
We cater hog roasts, lamb roasts and BBQs in and around Buckingham, mostly for weddings, farm parties and village events. Everything is cooked and carved on site, and we bring the sides, sauces, breads and a team to serve.
We cater across Buckingham as part of our hog roast catering in Buckinghamshire. For the full picture of how we work, see our full-service hog roasts page.
Where we cater in Buckingham
This is one of the most rural corners of our area, so a lot of our Buckingham events are on farms and private land: marquee weddings, harvest suppers, shoot lunches and big family parties. Villages such as Maids Moreton, Tingewick, Gawcott, Padbury and Winslow have halls, greens and cricket grounds that host summer fetes and fundraisers. The university brings graduation-season celebrations and student events.
Farm access is the main planning point. Fields may be some distance from the nearest hard track, and gateways can be narrow for a trailer. Once we know the site, it's straightforward.

BBQ catering in Buckingham
For events in Buckingham with a mixed crowd or a tight serving window, we often suggest a BBQ, either on its own or running alongside the hog roast. Two serving points shorten the queue and give everyone more to choose from.

Events we cater in Buckingham
Wedding hog roasts
Farm weddings around Buckingham tend to have long guest lists and a relaxed pace. We often roast a whole pig for the main meal with salads and new potatoes, then use the remainder for evening rolls — practical, generous and in keeping with a countryside setting.
Wedding hog roastsCorporate events
Local agricultural and rural businesses, the university and firms along the A421 towards Milton Keynes all book summer and Christmas events with us. We'll scale the menu and staffing to the group and keep everything simple for the organiser.
Corporate BBQ cateringBirthday & private parties
Buckingham birthday and anniversary parties often happen in barns or on family land rather than in town gardens, which gives plenty of room. A hog roast for the adults with a BBQ for children is a popular combination.

Pork hog roast
Nothing is carved in advance and left to sit. The pig goes on hours before service, fills the air with the smell of roasting pork, and is carved fresh for every guest with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce.
View our hog roast menuLamb roast
Spit-roasted whole lamb, seasoned with garlic and rosemary and carved to order. It's served with mint sauce, warm flatbreads and fresh salads — ideal when some guests don't eat pork.
A whole lamb roastBBQ options
Grill favourites cooked to order: burgers, sausages, chicken thighs, halloumi skewers and vegan sausages, all served with rolls and a full sauce line-up.
BBQ packagesSides & salads
Most Buckingham events pick two to four sides. Summer menus lean towards coleslaw, leaf salads, tomatoes and potato salad; evening and winter events tend to want fries, sweet potato fries or new potatoes. We bring the breads, rolls and sauces too.
Vegetarian, vegan & dietary options
Most Buckingham events have guests who don't eat pork, and many have vegetarians, vegans and people with allergies. We cook meat-free dishes separately when asked, label every dish, and can build a pork-free menu around lamb or the BBQ. Our allergen information explains what we can and can't guarantee.
