Corporate hog roast in Farley Wood, carved to order
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Tell us what your facilities team needs. We’re frequently asked to cater family fun days and launch days, with coleslaw, salads and spit-roast lamb.
Work events near Farley Wood might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. A hog roast suits all of them. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How does payment work for businesses?
Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
