Christmas hog roast in Bagshot, slow-roasted on site
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Bagshot suit a hog roast stall: warm rolls when it is cold outside. We are often asked to cater office Christmas parties and family Christmas gatherings, with hog roast rolls, apple sauce and halloumi skewers.
For a Christmas get-together near Bagshot, a hog roast in the garden goes down well on a dark December evening. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook. Christmas parties in Bagshot are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
