FAQs for Coldblow

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Could you cook in Braeburn Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Can you work around our timings?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Can we just hire the roaster?

Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

Do you do Christmas fairs?

We do. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.

What do people get?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

When should we book our Christmas party?

As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Ask as soon as you know your date.

Catered or do it yourself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

What the cooking area needs

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Parking near the cooking area
  • A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
  • Indoor space for eating

Coldblow is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Coldblow in December: what to know

Coldblow is about 3 miles east of Sidcup, in Greater London. We cover Coldblow and its neighbours for Christmas parties. Coldblow is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we cater. You can also see our page for London, about 12 miles away.

Carol services and Christmas fairs at churches such as Church of St Mary the Virgin draw people who are glad of hot food afterwards. If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like Maypole Primary School, hot rolls go down well. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Coldblow; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.

Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?

Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why us?

  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork
  • Sides to make it a full meal

See our prices page or the cost guide.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
  • Count who doesn’t eat pork
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers

If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so tell us about delays.

Roast turkey can be added.

Working with your venue

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
