Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Benhilton
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. A hall, office or marquee works well. We’re frequently asked to cater winter fairs and markets and family Christmas gatherings, serving rotisserie chicken, roast turkey and apple sauce.
Around Benhilton, a Christmas booking needs a lit, covered outdoor cooking spot. In London, access needs planning. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

How the day 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. A lunchtime Christmas party in Benhilton is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Book early for December.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive

Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Benhilton: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Benhilton?
Benhilton has its own station: Sutton Common station.
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Benhilton?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Do hog roasts work in winter?
Hot food suits winter perfectly, as long as guests have shelter.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
- A lit route to the food
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
Benhilton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
