How our corporate hog roast works in Brightling
Sites normally have rules for outside caterers: access, gas cooking and the cooking area. Pass on your site’s requirements. For project wrap-ups and away days, we can cook salads, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
Near Brightling, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Common questions in Brightling
Is Brightling too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Tell us what your site asks for, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Shelter for the team
- Somewhere to park our vehicle
