Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Mix and match: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Questions from New Hinksey

How far is New Hinksey from London?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Could you cook in South Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

Do you do Christmas fairs?

Yes. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.

Do you provide china?

We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

What happens if it is dark?

It gets dark early, so we will sort lighting together.

Do you come to New Hinksey?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, New Hinksey and the rest of Oxfordshire included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Do December dates go quickly?

Very quickly, so ask early. Midweek dates are easier.

What about coeliacs?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
  • Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.

Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.

How the day works

The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Christmas parties in New Hinksey are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.

  1. It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
  5. We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.

How to prepare

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready

About the food

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.

Prices and what affects them

There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Season and day of the week
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The journey to the venue
  • Which meats and sides you choose

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
