What happens on the day
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your staff will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For a staff lunch in Crabtree, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.

- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- We serve within your break.
- We pack away and go.
Getting ready for the day

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
