Christmas hog roast for Rise Park

About our Christmas hog roast in Rise Park

For a work Christmas party in Rise Park, a hog roast is a change from the usual set menu: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. Whether it’s lights switch-on evenings and end-of-year team celebrations, we can cook rotisserie chicken, roast potatoes and roast turkey and more.

London Christmas parties in Rise Park are frequently at offices, pubs with a courtyard or homes with a garden. Tell us about lighting and access. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Before you choose a spot

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:

  • Hardstanding if possible in winter
  • Indoor space for eating
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat

As a London location, Rise Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

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

Popular choices

  • Crackling
  • Roast turkey

Rise Park questions

Which station is closest to Rise Park?

Gidea Park station, about 1.4 miles south-east of the centre.

Could you cook in Raphael Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can we have roast turkey?

We can: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

How much will it be?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.

What if it rains?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

How do you work out quantities?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.

Allergies and dietary needs

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

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Send the allergen list round before the party
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately

Give us a contact for the evening, especially for an office party.

Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.

Step by step

Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. With sunset at about 3:50pm in December, most Christmas parties in Rise Park are after dark. The cooking area is lit; tell us about lighting on the way to it.

  1. Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the venue and send a price.
  3. On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.

Preparing for the day

  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planning help

Full catering or machine hire?

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.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

What affects the price in Rise Park

Things that change the price:

  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • Distance from us
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Numbers

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Getting an accurate quote

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Your menu choices
  • The address or postcode
  • An estimate of numbers

Send us the date, the address or RM1 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.

A hog roast or other catering?

At a winter fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

Why Rise Park hosts choose us

  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
