How it works

Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. With sunset at about 4:00pm in December, most Christmas parties in Avisford are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.

  1. Send us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We confirm the space and send a price.
  3. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
  4. Our chef carves and staff serve.
  5. We pack up, even in the rain.

Before we arrive

  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

How our Christmas hog roast works in Avisford

Winter weather is part of the plan: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. A hall, office or marquee works well. We are often asked to cater office Christmas parties and christmas markets, serving hog roast rolls, roast turkey and apple sauce.

For a Christmas party near Avisford, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Should I cook it myself?

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Working with your venue

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Before you choose a spot

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Parking near the cooking area
  • Hardstanding if possible in winter
  • Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Send the allergen list round before the party
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups

At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.
