Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Mount Pleasant
Can you roast near the sea around Mount Pleasant?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What’s the nearest station to Mount Pleasant?
The closest is Minster station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.
Can you serve inside our office or hall?
We cook outside, but can generally serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you cover Mount Pleasant?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In December, it’s dark in Mount Pleasant by about 3:50pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.

- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day

- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Full catering or machine hire?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
