Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Foxendown
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, crackling and salads, and typical bookings are for site open days and team treats.
For farms and rural sites near Foxendown, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- A named contact for the day
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Spit-roast lamb
- Salads
- Crackling
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Coleslaw
- Hog roast rolls
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Rotisserie chicken
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why book our hog roast in Foxendown
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Plates or china
- Access to the cooking area
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The address or postcode

How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your staff will smell it long before they see it. For a staff lunch in Foxendown, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Contact us with the basics.
- We check with facilities and quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We carve and serve quickly.
- We leave the site clean.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Planners, venues and businesses
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we’ll fit in.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
