Christmas hog roast for Anmore
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Anmore
Fridays in December go first, so get in touch as soon as you know your date. We serve halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we are often booked for family Christmas gatherings and festive open evenings.
For a Christmas party near Anmore, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
- A lit route to the food
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
