Christmas hog roast in Staplers, carved to order
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. For between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers and club and society Christmas parties, we can cook apple sauce, roast turkey and roast potatoes for your guests.
At a festive party in Staplers, hot rolls from the roaster go down well on a dark December evening. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your Christmas party in Staplers. A lunchtime Christmas party in Staplers is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
