- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

St Peter's in December: what to know
St Peter's is about 1 mile north-west of Broadstairs, in Kent. Wherever your Christmas party is in St Peter's, we can bring the roaster, as long as there is an outdoor spot to cook. We bring hog roasts to 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 16 miles away.
The A255 make St Peter's easy to reach on a dark winter evening. Train travellers will want to know that Broadstairs station, about 0.7 miles south-east, is the nearest station. With the sea within about 3 miles, December breezes can be cold.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count who does not eat pork
Name someone to meet us, especially for an office party.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.
