How our corporate hog roast works in Brands Hill
A hog roast brings lunch to the workplace. We set up in a car park, yard or courtyard in Brands Hill, roast through the morning and carve at the time you set. Typical bookings include retirements and long-service awards and staff thank-you lunches, serving coleslaw, crackling and salads.
Rural businesses around Brands Hill can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

- Share the allergen information with the team
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We will sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.

Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
