Christmas hog roast in Chalkshire, slow-roasted on site
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. The roaster cooks outside under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Chalkshire. We are frequently asked to cater sports club Christmas do’s and christmas family parties, serving crackling, roast potatoes and apple sauce.
In a small place like Chalkshire, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

What else we do in Chalkshire
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
- Vehicle access close by
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the roaster
- Hog roast rolls
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Roast turkey
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Roast potatoes
- Crackling
- Salads
- Stuffing and apple sauce
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Crockery choices
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- How many people are eating
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Dietary requirements
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.

Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?
At a winter fair, hot pork rolls are always popular. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
