About our Christmas hog roast in Chertsey
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. We’ll need light around the serving area. Typical bookings include christmas family parties and society Christmas socials, with halloumi skewers, apple sauce and roast turkey.
For a Christmas get-together near Chertsey, a hog roast in the garden goes down well. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
