Christmas hog roast in Lee Common, slow-roasted on site
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. We will need light around the serving area. On the menu are roast turkey, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are often booked for christmas fairs and office Christmas parties.
In a small place like Lee Common, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How the day works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. By about 3:55pm in late December, Lee Common is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- Clearance from walls and tents
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Add dietary questions to the invite
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.
Roast turkey can be added.
