Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
How our Christmas hog roast works in Connaught Village
Swap the set menu for a hog roast at your Christmas party in Connaught Village: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. Typical bookings include christmas family parties and late-night shopping events, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and roast potatoes.
For Christmas parties in Connaught Village, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
