For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Menu choices and extras
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Allergies we should know about
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
- The date and time of the event
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.
The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-December sunset in Monxton comes at about 4:00pm. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
