Corporate hog roast in Guildford, slow-roasted on site
Sites usually have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it is new premises openings and team-building days, we can cook crackling, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken for your staff.
Guildford has offices, business parks, depots and warehouses that suit a hog roast. The site needs to agree a cooking spot. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
