A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, your staff can focus on residents. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why us?
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Our staff serve and clear
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Carved to order by a chef

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
