How our corporate hog roast works in Greatstone-on-Sea
For a staff day in Greatstone-on-Sea, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser: rolls are fast to serve and easy to eat. There are choices for people who don’t eat pork. We serve halloumi skewers, crackling and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater new premises openings and open days and family days.
Near Greatstone-on-Sea, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.
Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

What we serve, dish by dish

For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
