About our Christmas hog roast in Bledlow Ridge
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. We’ll need light around the serving area. For office Christmas parties and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, roast turkey and crackling.
Near Bledlow Ridge, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Bledlow Ridge questions
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Which station is closest to Bledlow Ridge?
The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 1 mile away.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Do you do Christmas fairs?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Send us the details.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Who books Christmas hog roast in Bledlow Ridge?
Hot food on a cold night is always welcome.
A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions. Typical bookings include:
- Work Christmas parties
- Society Christmas socials
- Winter open days
- Year-end thank-yous
Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of St Paul can book a hog roast stall.
Before booking anyone
- The space, cover and access they need
- What crockery is supplied
- Payment terms and cancellation policy
- Whether VAT is included
Planning for dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Clearance from walls and tents
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. With sunset at about 3:55pm in December, most Christmas parties in Bledlow Ridge are after dark. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
