Catered or do it yourself?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

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

The process

We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In Horsenden, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

  1. Send us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We confirm the space and send a price.
  3. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
  4. We carve and serve hot on cue.
  5. We clear away whatever the weather.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

The menu, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Roast turkey

A carved roast turkey makes it feel like Christmas, served alongside the pork and crackling.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Send the allergen list round before the party

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

Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.

Questions from Horsenden

Which station is closest to Horsenden?

Horsenden has its own station: Princes Risborough station.

Do you come out to small places like Horsenden?

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

How much will it be?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Do you need lighting?

It’s dark before 4pm in December, so we will sort lighting together.

Is it too cold for a hog roast?

Winter is a great time for a hog roast, as long as guests have shelter.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?

We can: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
