Christmas hog roast in Temple, slow-roasted on site
Christmas get-togethers can mean a lot of people, and a hog roast means nobody spends the day cooking. We’re frequently asked to cater office Christmas parties and end-of-year team celebrations, serving roast potatoes, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Near Temple, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Temple
Which station is closest to Temple?
Marlow station, about 1.6 miles north-east of the centre.
Is Temple close to London?
About 30 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What about Christmas markets?
We do. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.

Before you choose a spot

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a cold Christmas buffet, hot carved meat is far more welcome in December. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Serving and clearing done for you
Read how we price and the cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What affects the price in Temple
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of people
- Travel to Temple
- The date and time of year
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Rules from the venue or landowner
