How our Christmas hog roast works in Knights Enham
Swap the set menu for a hog roast at your Christmas party in Knights Enham: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. We serve hog roast rolls, roast turkey and crackling, and we are often booked for winter fairs and markets and end-of-term celebrations.
In winter near Knights Enham, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently soft. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
