Christmas hog roast for Frimley Green
How our Christmas hog roast works in Frimley Green
Winter weather is part of the plan: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. On the menu are roast turkey, crackling and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for christmas markets and sports club Christmas do’s.
At a festive party in Frimley Green, a hog roast in the garden goes down well on a dark December evening. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Common questions in Frimley Green
What’s the nearest station to Frimley Green?
Farnborough North station, about 0.5 miles west of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Where does the hog roast go?
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’ll confirm the space with your quote.

A hog roast or other catering?
