We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can you cater outdoors in December?

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. With sunset at about 4:00pm in December, most Christmas parties in Privett are after dark. The cooking area is lit; the route to it may need lights too.
- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We tidy up and leave.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Label alternatives clearly
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Roast turkey can be added.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
