About our corporate hog roast in Headcorn
Staff days in Headcorn work well with a hog roast: quick to serve, easy to eat standing up and enjoyed by most people. Chicken, lamb and vegetarian options cover everyone else. Whether it is retirements and long-service awards and end-of-project celebrations, we can cook crackling, coleslaw and spit-roast lamb for your staff.
For businesses around Headcorn, a staff lunch in the yard is easy to arrange. Let us know about the site. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Questions from Headcorn

Step by step
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. In Headcorn, summer evenings stay light until about 9:15pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.
