Christmas hog roast in Cranford, carved to order

December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. We will need light around the serving area. We’re often asked to cater christmas fairs and end-of-term celebrations, serving halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and apple sauce.

In Cranford, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Let us know about lighting and the way in. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

How to compare hog roast caterers

Planning for dietary needs

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
  • Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Label alternatives clearly

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

Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.

The menu, dish by dish

Roast turkey

At Christmas, add roast turkey alongside the hog, carved to order for a festive feel.

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.

How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In Cranford, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

  1. Tell us when and where the party is.
  2. We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
  3. The roast starts in the afternoon.
  4. We carve and serve hot on cue.
  5. We pack up, even in the rain.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Planning help

Catered or do it yourself?

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

A hog roast compared with other options

Mix and match: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Why us?

  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Timed around your day

See our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.

What the cooking area needs

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:

  • A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
  • Vehicle access close by
  • A lit route to the food

As a London location, Cranford is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Questions from Cranford

What if our house in Cranford has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Could you cook in Hounslow Heath?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?

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

What about Christmas markets?

Yes, a hog roast is a popular stall at Christmas fairs. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.

Can you serve inside our office or hall?

Serving inside is normally fine with the venue’s agreement.

Can you work around our timings?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote.

How far ahead should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

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

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
