How our Christmas hog roast works in Warbleton
Christmas get-togethers can mean a lot of people, and a hog roast feeds everyone without anyone stuck in the kitchen. We’re frequently asked to cater year-end thank-yous and sports club Christmas do’s, with apple sauce, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
For a Christmas party near Warbleton, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

What comes off the roaster

What a hog roast costs
The biggest factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- Time on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. By about 3:55pm in late December, Warbleton is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
