Corporate hog roast in Hightown
How our corporate hog roast works in Hightown
For a staff day in Hightown, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser: quick to serve, easy to eat standing up and enjoyed by most people. There are choices for people who don’t eat pork. For staff summer days and new premises openings, we can cook rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and salads.
At country workplaces around Hightown, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
China crockery is available for client events, quoted separately.

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. If your staff event in Hightown runs into the evening, check the light: about 9:25pm in June, 7:10pm in late September and 4:05pm in December.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
- We confirm the site details and send a price.
- The roast starts early on site.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Let us know about tight access

Hightown questions
Is Hightown too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you cater at venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, depending on the crockery and menu.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
