A hog roast near Charlton

How our Christmas hog roast works in Charlton

Christmas get-togethers can mean plenty of people, and a hog roast feeds everyone without anyone stuck in the kitchen. Typical bookings include christmas markets and family Christmas gatherings, with apple sauce, roast turkey and crackling.

For Christmas parties in Charlton, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.

Charlton: your questions answered

What if our house in Charlton has no side access?

Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

What’s the nearest station to Charlton?

Charlton has its own station: Charlton station.

Do guests have to eat outside?

Cooking is always outdoors; serving can be indoors.

Is mains power needed?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Do you come to Charlton?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Charlton and Greater London. Send us the address for a quote.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

What should we sort out beforehand?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.

What about Christmas markets?

We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.

What we serve, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Add dietary questions to the invite

We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.

Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.

What affects the price in Charlton

Things that change the price:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • The journey to the venue
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Whether you want china

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Details that help

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • A picture of the cooking area
  • The address or postcode
  • Rough numbers

Every Christmas party is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: use our quote form.

What happens on the day

The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. A lunchtime Christmas party in Charlton is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

  1. It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Give us a contact number for the day

Getting a price

It’s easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a plated turkey lunch, a hog roast is more relaxed. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why book our hog roast in Charlton

  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • An itemised quote

Full catering or machine hire?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
