Christmas hog roast for Richmond
Christmas hog roast in Richmond, carved to order
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Richmond, a hog roast draws a queue: warm rolls when it is cold outside. We are often asked to cater boxing Day and New Year gatherings and christmas lights switch-ons, with roast turkey, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
For Christmas parties in Richmond, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning, as December is busy on the roads. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us about delays.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
About the food
Roast turkey
Turkey and pork together cover traditionalists and crackling fans alike.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
For event organisers in Richmond
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How the day works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your Christmas party in Richmond. A lunchtime Christmas party in Richmond is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Book early for December.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
