Book a hog roast in Westerton
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Westerton
Swap the set menu for a hog roast at your Christmas party in Westerton: hot rolls, roast turkey if you like, and crackling for everyone. On the menu are hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for lights switch-on evenings and festive open evenings.
In winter near Westerton, we need firm ground and light, as fields are frequently 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 the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Westerton, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so for anything later, plan lights and somewhere warm to eat.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
- We tidy up and go, whatever the weather.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Send final numbers in good time
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Label alternatives clearly
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Roast turkey can be added.
