Christmas hog roast in Garsington, slow-roasted on site
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Garsington, a hog roast draws a queue: warm rolls when it’s cold outside. Whether it is winter open days and christmas fairs, we can cook halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and apple sauce.
In a small place like Garsington, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

FAQs for Garsington
What’s the nearest station to Garsington?
Radley station, about 3.8 miles south-west of the centre.
Is Garsington too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can we have roast turkey?
Yes: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
How the day works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. With sunset at about 3:55pm in December, most Christmas parties in Garsington are after dark. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- Book early for December.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
Getting ready for the day

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count who does not eat pork
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
