About our Christmas hog roast in Godden Green
For a work Christmas party in Godden Green, a hog roast is a change from the usual set menu: pork, turkey if you want it, and plenty of crackling. Whether it is between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers and sports club Christmas do’s, we can cook halloumi skewers, crackling and apple sauce for your guests.
In winter near Godden Green, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Here’s what affects the price:
- Numbers
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Details that help
Here’s what we will ask:
- The venue or postcode
- Your menu choices
- Your date and serving time
- Any venue rules
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
