Around Bellfields, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count who does not eat pork
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We pack up whatever the weather.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Christmas parties in Bellfields are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
How to get a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
