Christmas hog roast for Kevington
Christmas hog roast in Kevington, slow-roasted on site
Family gatherings at Christmas can be big, and a hog roast means nobody spends the day cooking. Popular choices include crackling, roast turkey and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for year-end thank-yous and family Christmas gatherings.
For Christmas parties in Kevington, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. Plan access early. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
What you get with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- All the equipment comes with us
See how we price or the cost guide.
What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. A lunchtime Christmas party in Kevington is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Book early for December.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your guests

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us about delays.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Travel to Kevington
- The number of people
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

Planning the cooking spot

- Vehicle access close by
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
