Christmas hog roast in Pevensey Bay, slow-roasted on site
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. A hall, office or marquee works well. Popular choices include roast potatoes, halloumi skewers and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for winter fairs and markets and christmas lights switch-ons.
Around Pevensey Bay, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- Vehicle access close by
- Hardstanding if possible in winter
