Christmas hog roast for Summerstown
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Summerstown
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. We are often asked to cater sports club Christmas do’s and winter fairs and markets, with apple sauce, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
For Christmas parties in Summerstown, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. In London, access needs planning. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
