How our corporate hog roast works in Albury Heath
A hog roast brings lunch to the workplace. We roast on site in Albury Heath through the morning and serve at your lunch break. Typical bookings include away days and site openings, serving halloumi skewers, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken.
Near Albury Heath, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your staff.
The process

After-work summer events in Albury Heath have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Crackling

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
