Corporate hog roast in Denton, carved to order
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. Add china and sides for a more formal feel. Whether it is site open days and thank-you lunches, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, salads and crackling for your staff.
Teams near Denton often go for a lunch in the yard or grounds. Let us know about the site. 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 we price a hog roast for your team
The biggest factors are:
- Crockery choices
- Travel to Denton
- How many people are eating
- Season and day of the week
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Denton: your questions answered

Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What will our facilities team need?
Requirements vary: send us the checklist and we will reply.
What about family fun days?
We do. Include visitors in your numbers and we will cater for all.

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Let us know about changes: we can hold the roast for a short time.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we’ll fit in.
A hog roast or other catering?

Where the roaster can go in Denton
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
