PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Bledington Primary School, suit a hog roast. Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St Leonard draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards.

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Add dietary questions to the invite
We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Bledington
Which station is closest to Bledington?
Kingham station, about 0.6 miles east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Bledington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Hot food suits winter perfectly, as long as guests have shelter.
How early should we book for Christmas?
The earlier the better. Midweek dates are easier.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
