Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Aldingbourne
Winter weather is part of the plan: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. We serve hog roast rolls, apple sauce and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for december open days and between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers.
In winter near Aldingbourne, we need firm ground and light. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Christmas catering near Aldingbourne
Aldingbourne is about 3 miles north of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Wherever your Christmas party is in Aldingbourne, we can bring the roaster, as long as there’s an outdoor spot to cook. Aldingbourne is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we cater. Our bookings stretch from Aldingbourne to Brighton (about 24 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like Aldingbourne Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. If a church like The Parish Church of St Mary is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles of Aldingbourne; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning. With the sea within about 4 miles, December breezes can be cold, so plan somewhere warm for guests to eat.

Aldingbourne questions
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do hog roasts work in winter?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.

Planning for dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s 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.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
