How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In Little London, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a restaurant booking, a hog roast at your venue keeps everyone together and is often better value. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why Little London hosts choose us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
