Christmas hog roast in Stanmore, carved to order
For a work Christmas party in Stanmore, a hog roast is a change from the usual set menu: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. We serve hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater festive family get-togethers and new Year parties.
In a small place like Stanmore, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, low and slow, for hours.

What a hog roast costs
There’s no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
- How many people are eating
- Time on site
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How the day works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Sunset in Stanmore in late December is about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
