A hog roast near Fernhurst
About our corporate hog roast in Fernhurst
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Fernhurst all suit a hog roast, as a simple way to say thank you. Typical bookings include long-service celebrations and client and customer events, with spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
Near Fernhurst, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- Menu choices and extras
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Your menu choices
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and serving time
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or GU27 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan staff can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
