Slow-roasted pork in Ashey
Corporate hog roast in Ashey, carved to order
A summer party for staff in Ashey does not have to mean a restaurant booking. A hog roast in the car park or grounds keeps everyone together. For retirement do’s and new premises openings, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb and more.
At country workplaces around Ashey, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your staff.

What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Ashey questions
What’s the nearest station to Ashey?
Smallbrook Junction station, about 1.5 miles north-east of the centre.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What about family fun days?
Open days are a great fit, with chicken and vegetarian options for visitors.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Where on site can you cook?
Most car parks and yards are fine, if there’s a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.

Other occasions in Ashey
For event organisers in Ashey
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
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.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
For somewhere as remote as Ashey, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. After-work summer events in Ashey have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. By late September, sunset is around 7:10pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.

Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
