Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Access to the cooking area
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Getting an accurate quote
When you enquire, please mention:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every Christmas party is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: send us your details through our quote form.

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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.

Ninfield: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Could you cook in Ashburnham Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do guests have to eat outside?
Cooking is always outdoors; guests can eat inside.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you do Christmas fairs?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
What the cooking area needs
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A lit route to the food
- A short route for our equipment
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
You can combine: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us

- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Ninfield, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send 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
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Send final numbers in good time
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
