Christmas hog roast in Kingsley Green, carved to order
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. We roast outdoors under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Kingsley Green. We serve crackling, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for december open days and work Christmas parties.
In winter near Kingsley Green, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
About the food
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a cold buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Kingsley Green questions
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
How far is Kingsley Green from London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can the food be served indoors?
The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
