Corporate hog roast in Bramley, slow-roasted on site
Most teams have a set break, so the roast is timed to the minute and serve quickly. Rolls keep service fast. We’re frequently asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and away days, with halloumi skewers, crackling and spit-roast lamb.
For businesses around Bramley, a staff lunch in the yard is easy to arrange. Let us know about the site. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Give us a contact on site for the day, so we can find you quickly.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For client events, add china, sides and a second roast to make it more formal. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Why us?

- Choices for people who don’t eat pork

- Cooked on the day, low and slow

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
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.
