Christmas hog roast for Booker

Working with your venue

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Christmas hog roast in Booker, slow-roasted on site

Planning for dietary needs

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Send the allergen list round before the party
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans

We serve hot rolls on cue, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.

How it works

We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. By about 3:55pm in late December, Booker is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.

  1. Send us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
  3. The roast starts in the afternoon.
  4. Our chef carves and staff serve.
  5. We clear away whatever the weather.

Before we arrive

  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Name a contact for the day
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready

  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

Prices and what affects them

We work out each quote from:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Travel to Booker

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Your date and serving time
  • The address or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

Booker: your questions answered

What’s the nearest station to Booker?

The closest is High Wycombe station, roughly 2.1 miles away.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

How do you work out quantities?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.

How soon do you get booked up?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.

What’s included?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.

Do guests have to eat outside?

Serving inside is usually fine with the venue’s agreement.

Catered or do it yourself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
