Corporate hog roast in Frensham
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Frensham
For a client event, a hog roast carved by a chef makes an impression. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. We’re often asked to cater staff summer days and site openings, serving salads, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw.
For farms and rural sites near Frensham, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. For a staff lunch in Frensham, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Plates or china
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
- Allergies we should know about
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your staff event: fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
