Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
Christmas hog roast in Meadle, carved to order
December is dark early, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. We will need light around the serving area. Typical bookings include end-of-term celebrations and between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers, with roast potatoes, rotisserie chicken and roast turkey.
For a Christmas party near Meadle, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Carved to order by a chef

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
The process
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late-December sunset in Meadle comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.

Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
For event organisers in Meadle
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
