How our corporate hog roast works in Englefield

Instead of booking a restaurant, bring the food to the team. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. On the menu are salads, crackling and coleslaw, and we are frequently booked for open days and family days and long-service celebrations.

For farms and rural sites near Englefield, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.

The biggest factors are:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Site access
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

How the day works

Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Open days in Englefield normally finish in daylight, though in winter it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so late events need lighting.

  1. Contact us with the basics.
  2. We sort access and send a quote.
  3. We arrive and set up under cover.
  4. Service is fast once we carve.
  5. We leave the site clean.

Before we arrive

  • Send final numbers in good time
