Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Rackham
Do you come out to small places like Rackham?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, alongside the pork.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What happens after service?

Is lighting needed?
It gets dark early, so we plan lighting with you.
Can you cater in Rackham?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Where the roaster can go in Rackham
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- A lit route to the food

What happens on the day
