Slow-roasted pork in Woolstone

About our Christmas hog roast in Woolstone

It’s dark before 4pm in December, so we start in daylight and roast into the evening. The cooking area and path need lighting. Popular choices include roast potatoes, crackling and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for staff Christmas do’s and christmas markets.

Near Woolstone, country lanes are dark in winter, so let us know about access and lighting. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Allergies and dietary needs

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:

  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, and we will plan it with you.

Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Why Woolstone hosts choose us

  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Our staff serve and clear

Full catering or machine hire?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • Distance from us
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The number of people
  • The date and time of year

The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Dietary requirements
  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and time of the event
  • An estimate of numbers

Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Use our quote form.

Woolstone questions

How far is Woolstone from London?

Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Woolstone?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Do you do Christmas fairs?

Yes. Hot food is always popular at winter fairs.

What comes with the hog roast?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

How it works

The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook. By about 4:00pm in late December, Woolstone is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve hot food at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

The menu, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Crackling

Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Space, access and the venue

It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:

  • A lit route to the food
  • Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
  • Clearance from walls and tents

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
