Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Chithurst
At an open day, you need food that serves a lot of people quickly. A hog roast does exactly that, and our team serves and clears. Typical bookings include end-of-project celebrations and client and customer events, with salads, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
At country workplaces around Chithurst, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. 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.
Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
