Corporate hog roast in Connaught Village, slow-roasted on site
A summer party for staff in Connaught Village does not have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. Whether it is team-building days and summer staff parties, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and coleslaw and more.
For offices in and around Connaught Village, the roaster generally goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Facilities teams generally need to approve gas equipment and access. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Questions from Connaught Village
What if our house in Connaught Village has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you do a hog roast in Hyde Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Let us know your site’s requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
