About our Christmas hog roast in Newick
Winter weather is part of the plan: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. We serve hog roast rolls, roast turkey and crackling, and we are frequently booked for christmas markets and family Christmas gatherings.
Near Newick, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant Christmas party, you avoid set-menu prices and keep everyone in one place. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Carved to order by a chef
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
Read our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast turkey
For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved at the serving station for a festive feel.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
The process
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Sunset in Newick in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

Newick questions
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you do a hog roast in Sheffield Park Garden?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Do hog roasts work in winter?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Plan a warm place for guests.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Is turkey available?
We can: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
Give us a contact for the evening, especially for an office party.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
Where the roaster can go in Newick
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- A short route for our equipment
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
