Do you bring plates?

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Roast turkey can be added.

What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. In December, it’s dark in Wecock Farm by about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a plated turkey lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

- Distance from us
- Site access
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Numbers
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
