Corporate hog roast in Beech, slow-roasted on site
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Beech all suit a hog roast, as a thank-you to the team. Whether it’s launch days and client hospitality, we will put together a menu of crackling, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw and more.
Near Beech, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
If it’s a themed open day, tell us and we’ll fit in.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
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.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
