Christmas hog roast for Farley Green
About our Christmas hog roast in Farley Green
Fridays in December go first, so get in touch as soon as you know your date. Typical bookings include boxing Day and New Year gatherings and staff Christmas do’s, with apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and roast turkey.
In winter near Farley Green, we need firm ground and light. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Farley Green, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Working with your venue

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Roast turkey can be added.
