Slow-roasted pork in Warningcamp

Christmas hog roast in Warningcamp, carved to order

December is dark early, so we set up in daylight and roast through the afternoon. We will need light around the serving area. Typical bookings include festive family get-togethers and winter open days, serving apple sauce, roast potatoes and rotisserie chicken.

For a Christmas party near Warningcamp, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

How it works

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Warningcamp, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

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

Before we arrive

  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Plates or china
  • Distance from us
  • The number of people
  • Site access

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.

  • Any venue rules
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Your menu choices
  • A picture of the cooking area

Questions from Warningcamp

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Can you roast near the sea around Warningcamp?

Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.

Do you bring plates?

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote.

How do we prepare?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Share the allergen information in advance

Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, and we will plan it with you.

Festive lights around the serving area look great.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
