Corporate hog roast in Brenchley, slow-roasted on site

At country workplaces around Brenchley, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
How we price a hog roast for your team
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Travel to Brenchley
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How long the roast and service take
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The date and time of the event

Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Brenchley
Can you do a hog roast in Foal Hurst Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Brenchley too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you come to Brenchley?
Yes, Brenchley is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What will our facilities team need?
Each site is different: send us the checklist and we’ll reply.
Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Serving and clearing done for you
- An itemised quote
- Served at the time you choose
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
