Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Five Oak Green
A corporate hog roast feeds a team without anyone leaving site. We set up in a car park, yard or courtyard in Five Oak Green, roast through the morning and serve at your lunch break. Whether it is milestone celebrations and staff thank-you lunches, we can cook spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and crackling for your staff.
Near Five Oak Green, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For client events, choose china, sides and lamb or chicken to make it more formal. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
We will sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
