Family gatherings at Christmas can be big, and a hog roast feeds everyone without anyone stuck in the kitchen. We’re often asked to cater staff Christmas do’s and christmas markets, serving apple sauce, crackling and roast potatoes.
For Christmas parties in Limehouse, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. Plan access early. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

- Who carves and who serves
- How long the roast takes and when they’ll arrive
- Travel and any London charges

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Count who does not eat pork
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, then roast through the afternoon.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- Plates or china
- Site access
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Where the event is
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-December sunset in Limehouse comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A lit route to the food
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- A short route for our equipment
As a London location, Limehouse is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
