About our Christmas hog roast in Little London
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who do not eat pork. We’re often asked to cater late-night shopping events and between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers, with roast potatoes, roast turkey and apple sauce.
In winter near Little London, we need firm ground and light. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A lit route to the food
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
From the roaster
- Roast turkey
- Hog roast rolls
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Salads
- Roast potatoes
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Crackling
- Rotisserie chicken
- Stuffing and apple sauce
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

Catered or do it yourself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Can you do a hog roast in Colekitchen Down?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What happens if it is dark?
It gets dark early, so we will sort lighting together.
What if it rains?
