Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- An itemised quote
- Served at the time you choose
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook. Late-December sunset in Newnham comes at about 4:00pm. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.
- Book early for December.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
