Slow-roasted pork in Gundleton
Corporate hog roast in Gundleton, slow-roasted on site
A summer party for staff in Gundleton doesn’t have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. On the menu are coleslaw, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for long-service celebrations and summer team parties.
Near Gundleton, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
How we price a hog roast for your team
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Season and day of the week
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Plates or china
- How many people are eating
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- The address or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

Gundleton questions
How far is Gundleton from London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London.
Is Gundleton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we will make it work.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
