How our Christmas hog roast works in Fawley
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. We roast outdoors under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Fawley. On the menu are halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater year-end thank-yous and winter fairs and markets.
In winter near Fawley, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
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.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
