Working with your venue

For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How our Christmas hog roast works in Stratton Audley

We plan for winter weather: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. A hall, office or marquee works well. On the menu are halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for december open days and new Year parties.

In a small place like Stratton Audley, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
  • Label alternatives clearly
  • Share the allergen information in advance

Name someone to meet us, especially for an office party.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How it works

The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Late-December sunset in Stratton Audley comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.

  1. Book early for December.
  2. You get a quote with the menu.
  3. We set up under cover in daylight.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
