Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Twyford
Swap the set menu for a hog roast at your Christmas party in Twyford: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. Whether it’s end-of-year team celebrations and between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers, we can cook crackling, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers 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.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Numbers
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Distance from us
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
