About our Christmas hog roast in Weddington
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. The roaster cooks outside under cover and carve to order for your Christmas party in Weddington. On the menu are roast turkey, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater staff Christmas do’s and late-night shopping events.
In a small place like Weddington, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. With sunset at about 3:50pm in December, most Christmas parties in Weddington are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
