Slow-roasted pork in Ibstone
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
How our Christmas hog roast works in Ibstone
Winter weather is part of the plan: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. We serve apple sauce, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater year-end thank-yous and office Christmas parties.
In a small place like Ibstone, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Send the allergen list round before the party
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
