How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. Lunchtime bookings in Crosswater are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- The roast starts early on site.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
- We pack away and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Corporate hog roast in Crosswater, carved to order
At an open day, you need food that serves a lot of people quickly. One roast feeds a crowd, and our team serves and clears. We are frequently asked to cater team days and away days and staff thank-you lunches, with hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and salads.
For farms and rural sites near Crosswater, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, everyone gets to join in. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why Crosswater hosts choose us
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
