Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
