How our Christmas hog roast works in Priestwood

Christmas get-togethers can mean a lot of people, and a hog roast means nobody spends the day cooking. Popular choices include crackling, roast potatoes and roast turkey, and we’re frequently booked for end-of-year team celebrations and work Christmas parties.

At a festive party in Priestwood, hot rolls from the roaster go down well on a dark December evening. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

The menu, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.

Rotisserie chicken

Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates.

Where the roaster can go in Priestwood

It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:

  • Indoor space for eating
  • Firm ground rather than soft lawn
  • A lit route to the food

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
  • Count who does not eat pork
  • Label alternatives clearly

We serve hot rolls on cue, so food goes out straight from the roaster.

Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal, quoted separately.

A hog roast or other catering?

Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why us?

  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

What happens on the day

We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Sunset in Priestwood in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

  1. Send us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
  3. The roast starts in the afternoon.
  4. We carve and serve hot on cue.
  5. We clear away whatever the weather.

Preparing for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
