Christmas hog roast for Golders Green

Christmas hog roast in Golders Green, slow-roasted on site

At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Golders Green, a hog roast draws a queue: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. Popular choices include roast turkey, roast potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater festive open evenings and lights switch-on evenings.

Around Golders Green, a Christmas booking needs a lit, covered outdoor cooking spot. Plan access early, as December is busy on the roads. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

How the day works

The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Sunset in Golders Green in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

  1. Ask early for a December date.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
  4. We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

How to prepare

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Looking after everyone

Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Add dietary questions to the invite

We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, then roast through the afternoon.

Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.

Common questions in Golders Green

What’s the nearest station to Golders Green?

The closest is Cricklewood station, roughly 1.2 miles away.

What if our house in Golders Green has no side access?

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Can the food be served indoors?

The roaster stays outside under cover; serving can be indoors.

When should we book our Christmas party?

December weekends go first. Ask as soon as you know your date.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Yes: add turkey to the menu.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.

  • A choice of salads and potatoes

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The number of people
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Midweek and quieter months are frequently 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

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • Any venue rules
  • Where the event is
  • Your date and serving time
  • Your menu choices

Should I cook it myself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
