Slow-roasted pork in Maudlin
Christmas hog roast in Maudlin, slow-roasted on site
Christmas get-togethers can mean plenty of people, and a hog roast feeds everyone without anyone stuck in the kitchen. Whether it’s end-of-term celebrations and boxing Day and New Year gatherings, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, roast potatoes and crackling and more.
For a Christmas party near Maudlin, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

FAQs for Maudlin
Can you roast near the sea around Maudlin?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Is Maudlin too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can you roast in the rain?

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a restaurant booking, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Carved to order by a chef
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
