Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In December, it’s dark in North Looe by about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Name a contact for the day
How to get a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
