About our Christmas hog roast in Stedham
December dates book up early, especially Fridays, so get in touch as soon as you know your date. Typical bookings include winter open days and office Christmas parties, with roast potatoes, apple sauce and roast turkey.
In a small place like Stedham, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. The main factors are:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Menu choices and extras
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any venue rules
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: use our quote form.
Stedham questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Stedham?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. A lunchtime Christmas party in Stedham is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- 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 clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Send the allergen list round before the party
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast turkey
For Christmas, roast turkey can join the pork, carved at the serving station.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
