Corporate hog roast for Clifton Hampden
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
About our corporate hog roast in Clifton Hampden
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. We are frequently asked to cater customer days and team treats, with rotisserie chicken, salads and coleslaw.
For farms and rural sites near Clifton Hampden, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We set up on the agreed spot, often first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.

Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Planned to your running order

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. After-work summer events in Clifton Hampden have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.
