About our Christmas hog roast in Ifold
Winter weather is part of the plan: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. Whether it is between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers and late-night shopping events, we can cook hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken and more.
Near Ifold, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Ifold
Do you come out to small places like Ifold?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Ifold from London?
About 35 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.

When should we book our Christmas party?
As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Ask as soon as you know your date.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. By about 3:55pm in late December, Ifold is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
Ask for a quote
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
