What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Christmas parties in Brookgreen are almost always after dark: sunset is about 4:05pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.

Common questions in Brookgreen
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Do you come out to small places like Brookgreen?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can the food be served indoors?
The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Is turkey available?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, alongside the pork.
