Slow-roasted pork in East Boldre
How our corporate hog roast works in East Boldre
Most teams have a set break, so we plan the roast to be ready on time and serve quickly. Rolls keep service fast. Typical bookings include site openings and retirement do’s, serving halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and salads.
Near East Boldre, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch, quoted separately.
How we price a hog roast for your team
Your quote depends on:
- How many people are eating
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The address or postcode
If you are comparing hog roast caterers for East Boldre, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
The process
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your staff will smell it long before they see it. In East Boldre, summer evenings stay light until about 9:25pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.
- Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- The roast starts early on site.
- We serve within your break.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive

Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s 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.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
