About our Christmas hog roast in South Godstone
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover everyone else. Whether it’s christmas family parties and end-of-term celebrations, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken and more.
In a small place like South Godstone, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, low and slow, for hours.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count who does not eat pork
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
Give us a contact for the evening, especially for an office party.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
