What affects the price in Dragons Green
There’s no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. The main factors are:
- How easy it is to reach the spot

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot food wins in winter. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Choices for people who do not eat pork

The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Christmas parties in Dragons Green are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. We bring lighting for the cooking area; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.

Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- Vehicle access close by
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
