DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your staff event. Open days in Crockerhill normally finish in daylight, but in December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.
