A hog roast near Woolhampton

About our Christmas hog roast in Woolhampton

Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes on the side. There are options for people who do not eat pork. We’re frequently asked to cater lights switch-on evenings and sports club Christmas do’s, with hog roast rolls, crackling and rotisserie chicken.

For a Christmas party near Woolhampton, firm, lit ground near the house or hall is key, as fields are often soft. The hog is roasted on site at your Christmas party, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Step by step

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Woolhampton, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

  1. It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
  2. We check the venue and send a price.
  3. On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
  5. We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to:

  • Whether you want china
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Menu choices and extras

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Details that help

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • Dietary requirements
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
  • Roughly how many people

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or RG7 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.

Roast turkey

Offer turkey and pork, and everyone’s happy, with roast potatoes on the side.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Mix and match: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

Why book with us

  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Serving and clearing done for you

Full catering or machine hire?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

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.
