What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What the cooking area needs
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
- Indoor space for eating
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
Popular choices
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Crackling
