Christmas hog roast in Bryant's Bottom, carved to order
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. For new Year parties and december open days, we can cook halloumi skewers, crackling and roast turkey and more.
For a Christmas party near Bryant's Bottom, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat.

Planning a Christmas party in Bryant's Bottom
Bryant's Bottom is about 4 miles north of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Bryant's Bottom. We bring hog roasts to all 263 towns and villages across Buckinghamshire. We cater events right across the region, from Bryant's Bottom to Reading (about 19 miles away).
If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Speen CofE VA School, hot rolls go down well. If a church like Speen Church (Baptist) is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Bryant's Bottom; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Bryant's Bottom, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
A cooked roast holds for a while, so keep us posted.
China crockery is available on request.
For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A short route for our equipment
- A lit route to the food
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.
