About our Christmas hog roast in Culverstone Green
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who do not eat pork. Typical bookings include winter fairs and markets and year-end thank-yous, serving halloumi skewers, roast turkey and crackling.
In winter near Culverstone Green, we need firm ground and light. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast turkey
A carved roast turkey makes it feel like Christmas, served alongside the pork and crackling.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Things that change the price:
- Season and day of the week
- Crockery choices
- Access to the cooking area
- Numbers
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Label alternatives clearly
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
- Clearance from walls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Roast turkey
- Roast potatoes
- Crackling
- Salads
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Hog roast rolls
- Rotisserie chicken
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Do you come out to small places like Culverstone Green?

The earlier the better. Weekdays often have more availability.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
