Christmas hog roast in Northumberland Heath, slow-roasted on site
Fridays in December go first, so ask early. We’re often asked to cater christmas family parties and winter fairs and markets, serving hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
For Christmas parties in Northumberland Heath, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

How it 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. With sunset at about 3:50pm in December, most Christmas parties in Northumberland Heath are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Light by the serving table
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- Indoor space for eating
As a London location, Northumberland Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- How many people are eating
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Access to the cooking area
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- Roughly how many people
- Dietary requirements
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Any venue rules
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or DA8 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
