A hog roast near Mogador
Christmas hog roast in Mogador, carved to order
Roast turkey can join the pork for a traditional touch, with roast potatoes and salads. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover everyone else. On the menu are crackling, roast potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for family Christmas gatherings and new Year parties.
In winter near Mogador, we need firm ground and light. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Sunset in Mogador in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Getting ready for the day

What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
