The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Late-December sunset in Wych Cross comes at about 3:55pm. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Label alternatives clearly
A cooked roast holds for a while, so keep us posted.
Add roast potatoes for a festive plate.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot food wins in winter. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
