Full catering or machine hire?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. A lunchtime Christmas party in Peasemore is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
- We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Peasemore
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Peasemore too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do hog roasts work in winter?
We roast outdoors whatever the season. Plan a warm place for guests.
Do you need lighting?
Yes: the cooking area, serving table and path need lighting after dark. Let us know what lighting the venue has.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
What about Christmas markets?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
