Christmas hog roast in Englefield Green
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Englefield Green
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. On the menu are crackling, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater christmas markets and lights switch-on evenings.
In Englefield Green, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
FAQs for Englefield Green
Could you cook in Windsor Great Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Which station is closest to Englefield Green?
The closest is Egham station, roughly 1 mile away.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is lighting needed?
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we plan lighting with you.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

For event organisers in Englefield Green
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Label alternatives clearly
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, and cook into the evening.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
