Christmas hog roast for Binsey

Why choose a hog roast in Binsey?

Next to a winter barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why Binsey hosts choose us

  • Planned to your running order
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • We bring everything to cook and serve

Full catering or machine hire?

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

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

The process

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. In December, it is dark in Binsey by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
  4. We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
  5. We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.

How to prepare

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
