Christmas hog roast in Pulborough, slow-roasted on site
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Pulborough, a hog roast draws a queue: warm rolls when it’s cold outside. We’re often asked to cater lights switch-on evenings and winter fairs and markets, with apple sauce, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
In Pulborough, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, slowly, over several hours.

Common questions in Pulborough
How far is Pulborough from London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you cater at venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Can you serve inside our office or hall?
Cooking is always outdoors; guests can eat inside.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do December dates go quickly?
The earlier the better. Midweek dates are easier.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Label alternatives clearly
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, and cook into the evening.
Ask for china for a sit-down Christmas meal.
