Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Hell Corner
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. Popular choices include apple sauce, hog roast rolls and roast turkey, and typical bookings are for end-of-term celebrations and society Christmas socials.
In a small place like Hell Corner, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Hell Corner questions
Which station is closest to Hell Corner?
Kintbury station, about 1.8 miles north of the centre.
Is Hell Corner close to London?
Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Can the food be served indoors?
The roaster stays outside under cover; serving can be indoors.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Sunset in Hell Corner in late December is about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Why choose a hog roast in Hell Corner?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- An itemised quote
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
