Christmas hog roast across Medway

Festive events of all kinds around Medway suit a hog roast, from small teams to big crowds. We serve hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and we are often booked for year-end thank-yous and lights switch-on evenings.

The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day.

Festive bookings in Medway

From Gillingham, Chatham and Rochester to 48 villages and hamlets, December brings parties at work and at home across Medway. Plan lighting and a short route to the food.

Gillingham: Gillingham is on or near the A2 and A231, so we can reach it easily in winter. Christmas fairs at a church such as Holy Trinity Church can book a hog roast stall. A lunchtime Christmas party in Gillingham is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:50pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

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.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better.

Questions to ask before booking

When they arrive and when the food will be ready
What the price includes, item by item
Allergen information for every dish
Whether VAT is included

Before you choose a spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:

Hardstanding if possible in winter
Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
Space away from buildings, marquees and trees

Organising for someone else?

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
