Christmas hog roast for Crowborough
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Crowborough
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. The roaster cooks outside under cover and carve to order for your Christmas party in Crowborough. Typical bookings include christmas markets and sports club Christmas do’s, serving hog roast rolls, roast turkey and rotisserie chicken.
For a festive get-together in Crowborough, hot pork and turkey make a change from the usual. Plan lighting and a short route from the roaster to the party. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Planning for dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the allergen information in advance
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.

How it works
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. A lunchtime Christmas party in Crowborough is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
- We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
