Why choose a hog roast in Holton?
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast is more relaxed. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why book our hog roast in Holton
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Served at the time you choose
See our pricing and the cost guide.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
