The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Step by step
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. With sunset at about 3:55pm in December, most Christmas parties in Maidenbower are after dark. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Gather dietary requirements early

Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot food wins in winter. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
