About our Christmas hog roast in Sinkhurst Green
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. Whether it’s society Christmas socials and end-of-term celebrations, we can cook crackling, roast turkey and hog roast rolls for your guests.
For a Christmas party near Sinkhurst Green, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are frequently soft. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- How many people are eating
- Plates or china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rules from the venue or landowner

What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Roast turkey
Offer turkey and pork, and everyone’s happy.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
