Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Carpenders Park
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Carpenders Park, a hog roast draws a queue: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. We serve roast potatoes, apple sauce and roast turkey, and we’re regularly asked to cater society Christmas socials and winter fairs and markets.
For Christmas parties in Carpenders Park, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are always popular. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why book with us
- An itemised quote
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Count who does not eat pork
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
We serve hot rolls on cue, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
