Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Middle Barton
How far is Middle Barton from London?
About 62 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Middle Barton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
What happens if it’s dark?
It gets dark early, so we will sort lighting together.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Roast turkey
For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved to order.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. 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.
