Corporate hog roast in Aldersbrook, slow-roasted on site
Staff days in Aldersbrook work well with a hog roast: rolls are fast to serve and easy to eat. There are choices for people who don’t eat pork. Typical bookings include away days and staff thank-you lunches, with coleslaw, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
For offices in and around Aldersbrook, the roaster typically goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Get facilities’ approval for gas cooking early. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Someone to meet us at reception
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
Aldersbrook is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it is less formal and normally costs less. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- No surprises: everything in writing
- A choice of salads and potatoes

Aldersbrook: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Aldersbrook?
The closest is Wanstead Park station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
What if our house in Aldersbrook has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
Can you feed staff and families?
Yes. Give us total numbers and we will plan for everyone.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power. For a staff lunch in Aldersbrook, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
