How our Christmas hog roast works in Wallcrouch

From office parties to village Christmas fairs, we cater festive events around Wallcrouch. Whether it’s new Year parties and office Christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of apple sauce, roast turkey and halloumi skewers for your guests.

In winter near Wallcrouch, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party

We don’t use a fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. The main factors are:

  • How many people are eating
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Travel to Wallcrouch
  • Plates or china

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

What we need to know

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Rough numbers
  • The address or postcode

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: send us your details through our quote form.

Organising for someone else?

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Share the allergen information in advance
  • Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Label alternatives clearly

We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.

Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Wallcrouch in December: what to know

Wallcrouch is about 8 miles south-east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in East Sussex. Our roaster is a regular sight at Christmas parties around Wallcrouch, from gardens to fields. We bring hog roasts to 289 places across East Sussex. We cater events right across the region, from Wallcrouch to Brighton (27 miles away).

If a church like Shover's Green Baptist Chapel is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. For anyone getting the train home after the party, Stonegate station, about 2 miles south, is the nearest station. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 2 miles of Wallcrouch; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Full catering or machine hire?

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Step by step

A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. By about 3:55pm in late December, Wallcrouch is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.

  1. Ask early for a December date.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

How to prepare

  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
