How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Christmas parties in Durrant Green are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:50pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Preparing for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Name a contact for the day
Ask for a quote
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Christmas parties in Durrant Green: local tips
Durrant Green is about 8 miles west of Ashford, in Kent. Hosts in Durrant Green book us for Christmas parties of all sizes. We cover 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Durrant Green to Canterbury (21 miles away).
A winter fair at a school like St Michael's Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. A Christmas fair at Church of St Michael is just the kind of event a hog roast suits. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 7 miles of Durrant Green; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.
For Christmas parties in TN26, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests. That could mean a Christmas party in a garden on Ashford Road and Biddenden Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. For Christmas parties just outside Durrant Green, we cover Stede Quarter (1 mile north-west), Woolpack Corner (2 miles west), Biddenden (3 miles north-west), Curteis' Corner (3 miles north-west) and Standen (3 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Maidstone (14 miles north-west), Ashford (8 miles east), Foley Park (14 miles north-west), Paddock Wood (14 miles west), Bearsted (13 miles north-west) and Park Wood (11 miles north-west).

- Schools near Durrant Green include Homewood School (1.5 miles south)
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
