Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

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.

What the cooking area needs

It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:

  • Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
  • Indoor space for eating
  • Parking near the cooking area

As a London location, Barnehurst is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

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

Catered or do it yourself?

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

How the day works

Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Christmas parties in Barnehurst are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:50pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.

  1. Book early for December.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Before we arrive

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Getting a price

Planning for dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:

  • Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
  • Count who doesn’t eat pork
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot food wins in winter. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Why us?

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Carved to order by a chef

Take a look at how we price and our hog roast cost guide.

The menu, dish by dish

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
