Is a hog roast right for your Christmas party?
Compared with a barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What you get with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Planned to your running order
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.
How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
The price comes down to:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Plates or china
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Dietary requirements
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, use our quote form.
For event organisers in Woolwich
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
- Vehicle access close by
- Light by the serving table
Woolwich is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we serve
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Rotisserie chicken
- Hog roast rolls
- Salads
- Roast turkey
- Roast potatoes
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Crackling
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so tell us about delays.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
How the day works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Sunset in Woolwich in late December is about 3:55pm, 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.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
