Book a hog roast in Frieth

Should I cook it myself?

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.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Frieth

From office parties to village Christmas fairs, we cater festive events around Frieth, from small teams to big crowds. We’re frequently asked to cater christmas markets and work Christmas parties, serving rotisserie chicken, roast turkey and halloumi skewers.

For a Christmas party near Frieth, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list

We pack up whatever the weather.

Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal, quoted separately.

Common questions in Frieth

How far is Frieth from London?

Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

How soon do you get booked up?

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.

What do people get?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Can you cater in Frieth?

We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Christmas parties in Frieth: local tips

Frieth is about 4 miles north-west of Marlow, in Oxfordshire. We are happy to travel to Frieth for Christmas parties and the places nearby. Frieth is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Frieth to Reading (about 12 miles away).

A Christmas fair at Church of St John the Evangelist is just the kind of event a hog roast suits. A winter fair at a school like Frieth Church of England Combined School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 5 miles of Frieth; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

We cater Christmas parties across the RG9 postcode area and the streets around it. We can cater a Christmas party on streets such as Frieth Hill, Ellery Rise and Hayles Field or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. For Christmas parties just outside Frieth, we cover Little Frieth (1 mile north-west), Lane End (1 mile north-east), Bolter End (1 mile north), Fingest (1 mile north-west) and Cadmore End (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also cater in Thame (11 miles north-west), Henley-on-Thames (6 miles south-west), Benson (11 miles west), Chinnor (7 miles north), Tilehurst (13 miles south-west) and Wallingford (12 miles west).

For planners, venues and organisers

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How the day works

We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Frieth, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
  4. We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
  5. Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Getting a price

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
