How our Christmas hog roast works in Sutton Courtenay
December is dark early, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. The cooking area and path need lighting. We serve halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for family Christmas gatherings and christmas lights switch-ons.
Around Sutton Courtenay, Christmas parties are frequently at home, the village hall or a club. The roaster needs a lit spot and firm ground. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
