- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Vehicle access close by

Fridays in December go first, so ask early. For end-of-term celebrations and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, we will put together a menu of crackling, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls and more.

- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Where the event is

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal, quoted separately.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Our staff serve and clear
