A hog roast near Crockham Hill
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How our corporate hog roast works in Crockham Hill
At an open day, you need food that serves a lot of people quickly. A hog roast does exactly that, and our team serves and clears. We are frequently asked to cater family fun days and customer days, serving halloumi skewers, coleslaw and rotisserie chicken.
For farms and rural sites near Crockham Hill, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
How it works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your staff, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. After-work summer events in Crockham Hill have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
