Christmas hog roast in Tolworth, carved to order
It is dark before 4pm in December, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. Typical bookings include society Christmas socials and december open days, with apple sauce, roast turkey and roast potatoes.
For Christmas parties in Tolworth, the roaster needs a lit, covered spot outdoors, such as a yard, courtyard or garden. Plan access early, as December is busy on the roads. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Where the roaster can go in Tolworth
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- Parking near the cooking area
- Indoor space for eating
As a London location, Tolworth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
