Christmas hog roast in Curridge
About our Christmas hog roast in Curridge
For a work Christmas party in Curridge, a hog roast is a change from the usual set menu: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. We’re frequently asked to cater december open days and family Christmas gatherings, serving apple sauce, hog roast rolls and roast turkey.
In winter near Curridge, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Questions from Curridge
Is Curridge too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Curridge close to London?
About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Do you need lighting?
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we plan lighting with you.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Count who does not eat pork
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Add dietary questions to the invite
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, and we will plan it with you.
China crockery is available on request.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a plated turkey lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why Curridge hosts choose us
- Served at the time you choose
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- The date and time of year
- Time on site
- The number of people
- Plates or china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
