How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Late-December sunset in Great Kimble comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Name a contact for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
We work out each quote from:
- Season and day of the week
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Plates or china
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- Your menu choices

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.

When should we book our Christmas party?
Very quickly, so ask early. Weekdays frequently have more availability.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
