Common questions in Egerton
Is Egerton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Egerton from London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Requirements vary: send us the checklist and we’ll reply.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you set up in our car park?
Anywhere suitable and approved, as long as it is outdoors.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Corporate hog roast in Egerton, slow-roasted on site
For a client event, a hog roast carved by a chef makes an impression. Add china and sides for a more formal feel. Typical bookings include staff thank-you lunches and retirements and long-service awards, with halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and coleslaw.
At country workplaces around Egerton, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
