Christmas hog roast in Norton
About our Christmas hog roast in Norton
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Norton suit a hog roast stall: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. We’re frequently asked to cater winter open days and festive family get-togethers, serving hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and roast potatoes.
For a Christmas party near Norton, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast is more relaxed. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- An itemised quote
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Christmas parties in Norton are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. We bring lighting for the cooking area; the route to it may need lights too.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? 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 is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
