A hog roast near Church Crookham
Corporate hog roast in Church Crookham, carved to order
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. Add china and sides for a more formal feel. Typical bookings include customer days and retirements and long-service awards, with coleslaw, salads and halloumi skewers.
Rural businesses around Church Crookham can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
For planners, venues and organisers
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.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
