Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Great Missenden

Is Great Missenden too small for a hog roast?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Is it too cold for a hog roast?

Hot food suits winter perfectly, as long as guests have shelter.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

What about coeliacs?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

When should we book our Christmas party?

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

Can you cater for vegetarians?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.

What should we sort out beforehand?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.

A hog roast or other catering?

Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, a hog roast at your venue keeps everyone together and is frequently better value. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Why us?

  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Planned to your running order

Festive bookings around Great Missenden

A winter fair at a school like Great Missenden CofE Combined School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. If a church like Church of Saints Peter and Paul is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about a mile of Great Missenden; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

For Christmas parties in HP16, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many guests.

Allergies and dietary needs

Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, and cook into the evening.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

Should I cook it myself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Where the roaster can go in Great Missenden

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • Clearance from walls and tents
  • Firm ground rather than soft lawn
  • A level outdoor area that can be lit

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
