Christmas hog roast in Lockerley, carved to order
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Lockerley suit a hog roast stall: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. Whether it’s lights switch-on evenings and work Christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of roast turkey, roast potatoes and apple sauce.
In a small place like Lockerley, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Why choose a hog roast in Lockerley?
Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, a hog roast at your venue keeps everyone together and is often better value. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Count who does not eat pork
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.

- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
How to prepare

- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us a contact number for the day

Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.

Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A lit route to the food
- Indoor space for eating
