What else we do in Kingston upon Thames
The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In December, it’s dark in Kingston upon Thames by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Why choose Christmas hog roast in Kingston upon Thames?
Rolls suit a mingling party.

- How dietary needs are handled
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Here’s what affects the price:
- Time on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Roughly how many people
- Any venue rules
- A photo of the cooking area
- The address or postcode
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We set up while it’s still light, then roast through the afternoon.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Questions from Kingston upon Thames
What if our house in Kingston upon Thames has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Canbury Gardens?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
