Where on site can you cook?
A car park, yard or grounds usually works, given level ground and clearance.

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Cocking Causeway
Most teams have a set break, so we plan the roast to be ready on time. Rolls are the quickest way to serve. On the menu are crackling, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater staff summer days and client and customer events.
Rural businesses around Cocking Causeway can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. For a staff lunch in Cocking Causeway, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

How we price a hog roast for your team
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Dietary requirements
- What the outdoor space is like
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Rough numbers
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the staff event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it is less formal and normally costs less. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.

- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
