Corporate hog roast for Flemings
How our corporate hog roast works in Flemings
For a staff day in Flemings, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser: rolls are fast to serve and easy to eat. Chicken, lamb and vegetarian options cover everyone else. We serve coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are frequently booked for staff thank-you lunches and staff summer days.
At country workplaces around Flemings, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
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.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- Somewhere to park our vehicle
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
