For event organisers in Saunderton
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
How our Christmas hog roast works in Saunderton
Roast turkey can join the pork for a traditional touch, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who don’t eat pork. For end-of-year team celebrations and family Christmas gatherings, we can cook rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and apple sauce for your guests.
For a Christmas party near Saunderton, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.

How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Step by step
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Sunset in Saunderton in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
