Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
Give us a contact for the evening.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For a Christmas fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Each price is built from:
- How many people are eating
- Travel to Bodicote
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

Every Christmas party is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Bodicote questions
Can you do a hog roast in People's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is Bodicote close to London?
About 64 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is turkey available?
Yes: add turkey to the menu.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can the food be served indoors?
Serving inside is generally fine with the venue’s agreement.
Can you cater outdoors in December?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Plan a warm place for guests.
