Christmas hog roast in Teynham, carved to order
Winter weather is part of the plan: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. We serve hog roast rolls, apple sauce and roast turkey, and we’re often booked for office Christmas parties and end-of-year team celebrations.
At a festive party in Teynham, a hog roast in the garden goes down well. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We arrive in daylight to set up and start roasting, then roast through the afternoon.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.
Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. A lunchtime Christmas party in Teynham is the only one in good daylight, as it is dark by about 3:50pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Before we arrive

Full catering or machine hire?
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.
