Christmas hog roast in Sunnymeads, slow-roasted on site
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. We will need light around the serving area. We are frequently asked to cater december open days and christmas markets, with hog roast rolls, apple sauce and crackling.
In a small place like Sunnymeads, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Questions from Sunnymeads
Is Sunnymeads too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can we have roast turkey?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, alongside the pork.
When should we book our Christmas party?
The earlier the better. Midweek dates are easier.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can the food be served indoors?
The roaster stays outside under cover; guests can eat inside.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your Christmas party in Sunnymeads. Sunset in Sunnymeads in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
