Corporate hog roast in Ashtead
The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Lunchtime bookings in Ashtead are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Ashtead
A summer party for staff in Ashtead does not have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. We’re often asked to cater long-service celebrations and team days and away days, serving spit-roast lamb, crackling and coleslaw.
A staff treat in the yard in Ashtead is easy with a hog roast, if the site agrees. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
How we price a hog roast for your team
Each price is built from:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any venue rules
- The venue or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
