About our Christmas hog roast in St Clement's
December is dark early, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. We will need light around the serving area. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for end-of-year team celebrations and sports club Christmas do’s.
At a festive party in St Clement's, hot rolls from the roaster go down well on a dark December evening. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in St Clement's
Can you do a hog roast in Headington Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to St Clement's?
Oxford station, about 1.3 miles west of the centre.
Is lighting needed?
After dark, the serving area and the path to it need lighting. Tell us what’s already there and we will plan the rest with you.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. By about 3:55pm in late December, St Clement's is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Before we arrive
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
