Corporate hog roast in Byfleet, carved to order
Lunch breaks are often fixed, so the roast is timed to the minute. Rolls keep service fast. On the menu are hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and we are often booked for new premises openings and long-service celebrations.
Work events near Byfleet might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. A hog roast suits all of them. 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.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A named contact for the day
- Sign-off for outside caterers
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Looking after everyone
Some staff will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
China crockery is available for client events, quoted separately.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- Menu choices and extras
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

Compared with a formal plated lunch, it is less formal and normally costs less. The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
