Christmas hog roast in Langton Green, carved to order
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. A hall, office or marquee works well. We are frequently asked to cater boxing Day and New Year gatherings and christmas family parties, serving hog roast rolls, roast potatoes and roast turkey.
In Langton Green, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. We need firm ground and some light. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
