Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Why choose Christmas hog roast in Boveney?
It is a change from turkey and all the trimmings in a restaurant.
We’re regularly asked to cater a wide mix of occasions near Boveney, such as:
- Festive open evenings
- End-of-term celebrations
- Christmas family parties
- Christmas lights switch-ons
Christmas fairs at a church such as St Mary Magdalene's Church can book a hog roast stall.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How it works
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. A lunchtime Christmas party in Boveney is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
Getting a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: fill in our quote form.
