Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Christmas parties in Nuptown are almost always after dark: sunset is about 3:55pm in December. We bring lighting for the cooking area; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Share the allergen information in advance
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, then roast through the afternoon.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal, quoted separately.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A lit route to the food
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
