Christmas hog roast in Eversley Centre, carved to order
It’s dark before 4pm in December, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. The cooking area and path need lighting. For winter fairs and markets and new Year parties, we will put together a menu of crackling, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers for your guests.
For a Christmas party near Eversley Centre, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
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.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
