Christmas hog roast in Cookham Dean

Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Cookham Dean

December dates book up early, especially Fridays, so contact us as soon as you know your date. We serve hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for lights switch-on evenings and sports club Christmas do’s.

For a Christmas party near Cookham Dean, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Cookham Dean

Is Cookham Dean too small for a hog roast?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Which station is closest to Cookham Dean?

The closest is Cookham station, roughly 1 mile away.

Who serves?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

Can we have roast turkey?

Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, alongside the pork.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Can you serve inside our office or hall?

We cook outside, but can normally serve indoors if the venue agrees.

A hog roast or other catering?

At a winter fair, hot pork rolls are always popular. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

Why us?

  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Served at the time you choose

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
  • Send the allergen list round before the party

At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

What we serve, dish by dish

Our full booking checklist

Prices and what affects them

We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • Crockery choices
  • Season and day of the week
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • How easy it is to reach the spot

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

What we need to know

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • Your menu choices
  • A photo of the cooking area
  • Rough numbers
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

Send us the date, the address or SL6 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.

How the day works

A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In Cookham Dean, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

  1. Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
  5. We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

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.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
