Corporate hog roast in Burkham, carved to order
Sites usually have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Typical bookings include long-service celebrations and site open days, serving coleslaw, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Rural businesses around Burkham can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

A closer look at the menu
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Questions from Burkham
Is Burkham too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to Burkham?
Alton station, about 4.7 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls keep service quick.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.
